Re: Oracle and Docker partnership details?

Reading through the github page, it looks as though we might be able to supply our own installers (EE for example) and utilize the images on fully licensed hosts. If that holds true I can see this holding a big benefit.

IANAL but I would suggest that means that your developers can only use that in the same way as they would a download from OTN, which is to say for most internal uses not at all. See also the wording on Oracle's github page https://github.com/oracle/docker-images/tree/master/OracleDatabase <https://github.com/oracle/docker-images/tree/master/OracleDatabase>

They're touting that this is great for developers to build quickly on their workstation, but if things are still licensed per core, licensing all cores it will possibly run on, it's of much less utility.

I'm just looking at it very skeptically before I start talking about it more with our devs. Is this just a PR spin, trying to get everyone excited about Oracle cloud?
