- When licensing Oracle programs with Standard Edition One, Standard Edition 2, or Standard Edition in the product name, the pricing is based on the size of the instance. Authorized Cloud Environment instances with four or fewer Amazon vCPUs, or four or fewer Azure vCPUs, or four or fewer GCP vCPUs are counted as 1 socket, which is considered equivalent to an Oracle processor license. For Authorized Cloud Environment instances with more than four Amazon/Azure/GCP vCPUs, every four vCPUs used (rounded up to the nearest multiple of four) equate to a licensing requirement of one socket. Oracle Database Standard Edition may only be licensed on Authorized Cloud Environment instances up to 16 Amazon/Azure/GCP vCPUs. Oracle Standard Edition One and Standard Edition 2 may only be licensed on Authorized Cloud Environment instances up to eight Amazon/Azure/GCP vCPUs. If licensing Database Standard Edition 2 by Named User Plus metric, the minimums are 10 NUP licenses per 8 Amazon vCPUs or 8 Azure vCPUs or 8 GCP vCPUs.
