is two licensing schemas, by named user or by processor , if you wonder how
Oracle sell you named user license, Oracle would ask you “How many REAL
users access your Web Application?” If your answer is “It is
uncountable” Oracle will sell you a license per processor if not they are
going to sell you a license per real user accessing you Web Application (or
MapGuide Studio), this is independent of how many users are connected from DataSources/DataConnections
from MapGuide to Oracle DataBase.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Oracle sales and licensing folks. Technically, a connection to the Oracle
database from MapGuide would be by the same "user", but I believe that
Oracle will look at it as each user accessing the overlying MapGuide
application.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue'>It sounds like Oracle is not doing named
user licensing for new contracts anymore (which follows the industry
trend). Instead, new licensing is done using the CPU licensing
model. This would definitely make it easier for you when determining what
sort of license you need for your web GIS application.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'> Can Somebody help me by telling the relationship
between Mapguide users and Oracle users? Suppose there are 3 users accessing
the Web service via Mapguide interface and all those users View Spatial Data
that was stored in the Oracle Database (just view, not edit). How many
user connections will Mapguide make to the Oracle Database? 1, 3, or something
else? What if one of those user disconnect and come back in? What if
mapguide users are just idle .What kind of Oracle Database License useful for
the WebGIS Application developed using MapGuide WebServer-Named
User/Multiplexing or Processor Based License for this application )?
Any other cases if you can suggest of will be highly appreciable. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
