the biggest trouble with the article is that it does't actually deal with Oracle's licensing anymore. The UPU died, largely as a result of complaints, and soon after the article was written.

Not that i applaud Oracle pricing but at least critique on relevant facts.

Folks,

Does "Oracle Enterprise Edition - Trialware" have all the features as that of a licensed one ? Is RMAN fully functional on a trial version of 9iR2 ?

What makes the difference between these two ?

If there is no difference, how does ORACLE prevent people from using it for PRODUCTION ?

Read an interesting article about oracle licensing at http://www.vnunet.com/Analysis/1113993
<http://www.vnunet.com/Analysis/1113993> and just thought of sharing it with u guys.

Share your comments Gurus.

Cheers,
Joe.
