Oracle licenses are generally sold per CPU or per user, and cover
only the machine on which the license was purchased for.
We have a licensing arrangement that is per user and covers that
user on any system we wish to put a database on. I don't know if
Oracle still sells licensing that way. I don't think so, but you'd have
to ask your sales critter to find out.
There are some companies that have purchased site licenses also.
Again, I don't know if Oracle still does that.

Jard,
"If you're not already under some kind of license that covers existing
users on a new system, Oracle will likely tell you that you need to
license per CPU."
As we are on licensing with Oracle, I would appreciate if you could
elaborate what you mean by "covering on new system".
TIA!

Antje,
Before you determine the number CPU's, you need to talk to your
Oracle rep about your proposed DW and determine how they will
make you license it.
If you're not already under some kind of license that covers existing
users on a new system, Oracle will likely tell you that you need to
license per CPU.
If that's the case, you might consider going with the fastest CPU's you
can get, and limiting it to 2 CPU's. With that number of users and a
fairly small DW, you would most likely be fine.
Of course, I don't know anything about your requirements, but I do
know that an EE license is $40k U.S. per CPU, which can really eat
into the budget for a small project.

Hi,
I was asked to give some hint for the hardware for a data warheouse
running
on Win 2k and holding about 20-40 GB data.
Project will have about 40 small and 7-8 large tables. Users <20.
Probably
long running queries.
Which hardware would you use? How many processors? Which disks?
The os-system is set and cannot be Unix/Linux according to management
decision.
Any tips/recommendations appreciated
