Are these related to your PeopleSoft or middleware Deployment? • Servers also appear to be in Vmware, which greatly increases the risk • Potential risk $100M+ Table: Server Names identified with JMC components Best Practices – • Understand how Java SE / Commercial Products are used • Document use to Oracle licenses that include Java rights • Remove any unused and unwanted component • License what is needed, but understand the metrics! • Know the Oracle policies around vmware and how it relates to use! Confidential www.slc.us.com JAVA COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS LICENSING Here are links to Oracle’s licensing of the certain elements of Java: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/terms/products/index.html http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/documentation/java-se-product-editions-397069.pdf 1. Oracle considers each install of the items contained in the blue box as potential use cases for licensing – These are the “Applicable Releases” we are evaluating – and these are the only Java releases that contain the features described below. 2. If Oracle determines an Applicable Release is installed, they then ask the client to provide evidence of use of the “Features” listed in the red box. These are the only features by release that are considered “Commercial Products”. 3. Oracle will then require licensing for any server leveraging the licensable features of their software (Table 1-1 in the links provided above). Oracle licenses these products by Processor or Named User Plus, just like your database licenses. 4. Our clients discover the Applicable Releases with some sort of asset management tool or with assistance from their internal knowledgeable SME’s.
