1.3 Permitted Features, Options, and Management Packs by Oracle Database Offering

The tables in this section list Oracle Database features, Oracle Database options, and Oracle management packs, and their availability for each Oracle Database offering. The Y value in a column means that the feature, option, or pack is available for a particular offering; N means that it is unavailable; N/A means that it is not applicable. These tables can help you understand the difference between Oracle Database offerings to determine which one is right for you.

The tables are organized into the following functional categories:

Table 1-2 Consolidation

The number value in each column indicates the maximum number of pluggable databases (PDBs) that can be created for each offering.

  • For all offerings, if you are not licensed for Oracle Multitenant, then you may have up to 3 user-created PDBs in a given container database at any time.

  • EE: Extra cost option; if you are licensed for Oracle Multitenant, then you can create up to 252 PDBs.

  • EE-ES: Extra cost option; if you are licensed for Oracle Multitenant, then you can create up to 4096 PDBs.

  • BaseDB EE-HP, BaseDB EE-EP, and ExaDB: License included option: You can create up to 4096 PDBs. BYOL option: Limit is 3 PDBs, unless you purchase the Oracle Multitenant option.

Authorized Cloud Environments: Use is limited to three pluggable databases per container database.

Note: For licensing purposes, one non-CDB instance is equivalent to one user-created PDB inside one CDB.

SQL Plan Management does not require a license for Oracle Diagnostics Pack or Oracle Tuning Pack

SE2 and BaseDB SE Summary: Only one SQL plan baseline per SQL statement is allowed and SQL plan evolution is disabled.

SE2 and BaseDB SE Details:

  1. SQL plan baselines can be created or captured using the following methods:

    • Auto capture (OPTIMIZER_CAPTURE_SQL_PLAN_BASELINE=TRUE)

    • Manual loading from the cursor cache (DBMS_SPM.LOAD_PLANS_FROM CURSOR_CACHE)

    • Migration from stored outlines (DBMS_SPM.MIGRATE_STORED_OUTLINE)

    • Import using DBMS_SPM.UNPACK_STGTAB_BASELINE

  2. All capture and creation methods store only one SQL plan baseline per SQL statement.

  3. SQL plan baselines can be exported and imported using DBMS_SPM.CREATE_STGTAB_BASELINE, DBMS_SPM.PACK_STGTAB_BASELINE, and DBMS_SPM.UNPACK_STGTAB_BASELINE.

  4. Unused SQL plan baselines are not auto-purged.

  5. Alternative SQL execution plans for SQL statements are not added to the SQL plan history.

  6. SQL plan baselines can be altered and dropped (DBMS_SPM.ALTER_SQL_PLAN_BASELINE and DBMS_SPM.DROP_SQL_PLAN_BASELINE).

  7. The following DBMS_SPM functions and procedures are not allowed: CONFIGURE, LOAD_PLANS_FROM_AWR, LOAD_PLANS_FROM_SQLSET, and all functions and procedures associated with SQL plan evolution.

1.7 Special License Rights

Table 1-16 Special License Rights

Feature / Option Licensing Information

Data Guard Far Sync

The far sync instance can be installed and used on a server different from the server where the Oracle Database is installed and used. It is not necessary to obtain a separate license for the server running the far sync instance.

Enterprise User Security

If you wish to use Enterprise User Security in Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, you no longer need to license the Oracle Advanced Security option for Kerberos and PKI based authentication. It does require a corresponding Oracle Identity Management Directory Services Plus to be licensed. Any Oracle Advanced Security licenses purchased on or before January 31, 2004, have restricted use of the Oracle Internet Directory (OID) component of Oracle Directory Services Plus to support Enterprise User Security.

Global Data Services

The GSM listener can be installed and used on a server different from the server where the Oracle Database is installed and used. It is not necessary to obtain a separate license for the server running the GSM listener.

Infrastructure repository databases

A separate single instance Oracle Database can be installed and used as an infrastructure repository for RMAN, Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control, Automatic Workload Repository (AWR) Warehouse, Global Data Services Catalog, Sharding Catalog, and Grid Infrastructure Management Repository without additional license requirements, provided that all the targets are correctly licensed. It may not be used or deployed for other uses.

The infrastructure repositories for RMAN, Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control, AWR Warehouse, Global Data Services Catalog, and Sharding Catalog can be shared in one database, or deployed in separate databases. Enterprise Edition must be used for the infrastructure repository database(s).

If Oracle RAC is used for the infrastructure database, then Oracle RAC licenses for all servers, and Enterprise Edition licenses for all but the first server, are required.

If Data Guard is used for the infrastructure database for RMAN, Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control, AWR Warehouse, Global Data Services, and Grid infrastructure management Repository, then an Enterprise Edition license for the standby server is required. The Infrastructure Database for the Sharding Catalog can be protected with Data Guard without a second Enterprise Edition license.

Oracle ASM Cluster File System (Oracle ACFS)

When used with non-Oracle Database files, all Oracle ACFS features are free.

When used with Oracle Database files, all Oracle ACFS features are free, with the following exceptions:

  • ACFS Auditing - Not available (use Oracle Audit Vault*)

  • ACFS Compression - Not available (use Oracle Advanced Compression*)

  • ACFS Encryption - Not available (use Oracle Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), part of the Oracle Advanced Security option*)

  • ACFS Security - Not available (use Oracle Database Vault*)

Oracle Secure Backup

Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module

For backup of Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, Oracle Secure Backup includes restricted use licenses for:

  • RMAN backup encryption to tape or Amazon S3

  • RMAN backup compression leveraging LOW, MEDIUM, BASIC or HIGH algorithms

The Oracle Secure Backup special-use licenses apply to RMAN backup encryption, which is a component of the Oracle Advanced Security option, and RMAN backup compression levels, which are components of the Oracle Advanced Compression option. To use additional features of the Oracle Advanced Security option or the Oracle Advanced Compression option, you must license those options separately. In addition, the Oracle Advanced Security option must be licensed when performing RMAN encrypted backups directly to disk whether or not Oracle Secure Backup is the media manager.

Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module on ZDLRA

Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module can be used free of charge on Oracle Zero Data Loss Recovery Appliance (ZDLRA) for the sole purpose of backing up data to and restoring data from S3-compatible storage devices that are in the same campus as ZDLRA.

This special use license does not allow you to move such data to or from Non-Oracle Public Cloud Environments, either directly or through gateway devices.

You are allowed to move such data to and from Oracle databases that do not have ZDLRA, however, Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module must be licensed on those Oracle databases. For example, if you use Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module free of charge on ZDLRA to back up data to an S3-compatible storage device, you can then use Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module to restore that data to an Oracle database without ZDLRA, but only if Oracle Secure Backup Cloud Module is licensed on that Oracle database.

To move data to or from the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, the ZDLRA provides an integration with the OCI Backup Cloud Module which does not require a license.

Oracle Secure Backup Express

Oracle Secure Backup Express is bundled with the Oracle Database. Support for Oracle Secure Backup Express is provided exclusively through a free Oracle Discussion Forum monitored by Oracle employees as well as community experts.
