as I understand it Oracle no longer uses (officially) processor speed to determine license costs, though it appears that *actually* it uses revenue targets to determine license costs....

As of 9iR2, partitioning is still licensed separately as a $10K (retail) extra charge per processor.  So, the total retail comes to a painful $50K per processor for 9i + Partitioning.  Also, remember that support costs X% of the licensing per year, depending on your support level.  You'll have to confirm the exact numbers with your sales rep.  You can estimate about 22%, as I recall.

We just increased our licensing a few months ago.  Get the fastest processors you can.

Anyone know how 10g will be licensed?

Hi,
We're looking into migrating from SQL server to Oracle. Does anyone know if
Partitioning option is still licensed separately?

Thanks.
