Oracle Database Standard Edition can only be licensed on servers that have a maximum capacity of 4 sockets. If licensing by Named User Plus, the minimum is 5 Named User Plus licenses. Oracle Database Standard Edition, when used with Oracle Real Application Clusters, may only be licensed on a single cluster of servers supporting up to a total maximum capacity of 4 sockets.

*NOTE: This means that the server capacity must meet the restriction even if the sockets are empty, since they count towards capacity.*

So if you have 4 single *socket* servers

eg you could have a single 18 core intel 2600 v3 with 512gb of ram in -
