The license only applies to the Database - it is not related to how the client connects . Basically it will depend on how many users will connect ( the choice is between named user and Processor based licensing) If the Number of named users * named_userprice is => Processorlicenseprice ( @35000, but negotiable to some degree) then Processor would be the way to go..it will allow for easier management..
