Can I use Oracle Express Edition for Educational purposes?

Dears,
I have an Information Technology school and I'm wondering if I can use Oracle Express Edition for Educational purposes. Do I need any special licenses for this?
I noticed the following statement on Oracle 11g Express download (Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Release 2) but would like to confirm if I have any restrictions about that.
"Oracle Database XE is a great starter database for:
Educational institutions and students who need a free database for their curriculum
Thanks

  • How can I start using Oracle Express Edition

    Good afternoon, how can I start using Oracle Express Edition? I have it installed it but I can not enter any user or key that allows me to manage the program from the Internet. I have understood that this version is free.
    Correct me I'm wrong and please do noted me. In my country this course very expensive and I'm looking to learn on my own.

    Hi
    During installation wizard asked you about password for SYS and SYSTEM user, you had to set it. If you forgot you can loggin to ORACLE via SQL plus without password:
    c:\>SQLPLUS / sys as sysdba
    after connect you can set new password for any user, for example (SYSTEM user):
    ALTER USER SYSTEM identified by NEW_PASSWORD;
    After this you can login to APEX (Internet enviroment)
    Remember Oracle it's not only Internet frontend, it's huge tools with many functions. If you need study Oracle you need many time and zest but it is worth-while.
    Yes Oracle XE is free (read licence agreement).

  • Can i install oracle express edition in VMware cloud

    Can i install oracle express edition in VMware cloud
    VMware are saying you need licence for using oracle in cloud
    but they are showing pricing for Enterprise edition 
    and i am clueless

    I've moved your question over to the Cloud Computing > Oracle Database Cloud Service space it I think it's likely the best place for it.  Certainly the community feedback and suggestions forum (not for product related questions) was NOT the correct place, as that forum is NOT for product related questions, as it states in it's forum space title.

  • Will there ever be an Oracle Express Edition for Mac OSX

    I am curious if Oracle Express Edition will ever be ported for developers who use Mac computers?

    This is about the same question as the famous question 'How many divisions has the Pope', asked by Stalin.
    This is mainly an issue of marketshare.
    I don't think Oracle will be very much interested in porting OracleXE to Mac OSX.
    But I might be wrong.

  • Can i use FMS developer version for commercial purpose

    HI,
    Can I use flash media server4 developer version for commercial, if some one have knowledge about scope of the developer version then, please help me.
    Thanks
    Ram

    If you refer to EULA of FMS you will see below text corresponding to Developer License:
    .1.              Software  License.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Adobe grants to  Licensee a perpetual (except as set forth in Section 15) non-exclusive  license to install the Software on one (1) Computer  or Virtual Server and use  the Software delivered hereunder according to the terms and conditions of  this Agreement and the Documentation.  Unless indicated otherwise by the License  Key (as defined below) provided to Licensee, Licensee shall be deemed to have  licensed the Development Server. If Licensee has  licensed a Trial Version, in which case Section 2.2 applies, or if Licensee has  licensed Not For Resale Software, in which case Section 2.3 applies.
    2.1.1.         Development  Server License.  This Section 2.1.1 applies only if Licensee  has obtained a valid Development Server license to the Software.  In addition to  the other terms contained herein, (a) Licensee’s license to the Development  Server Software is limited to a maximum number of (i) ten (10) Concurrent Connections when using with the Real Time Media  Protocol (RTMP), and (ii) fifty (50) Concurrent Connections when using the Real  Time Media Flow Protocol (RTMFP); and (b) Licensee shall not use the Development  Server for load balancing.  No maintenance and support is available for the  Development Server.   
    So as per EULA you can use Developer Edition for commercial purpose with restriction that it cannot be used for load balancing or creating cluster of Developer Edition Network.
    You can refer to this old article when this part of EULA was introduced: http://www.flashcomguru.com/index.cfm/2006/10/9/fmsdevedition

  • Can I use APEX Packaged applications for commercial purposes

    Hi,
    When you download and Install APEX, it comes with pre build packaged applications. Can I use it to make money?
    I understand that I will not be able to get any support for Oracle and all that.  But  using  Database XE with APEX, can I start shipping these applications and make money lawfully without violating Oracle's terms?
    Please advise.

  • Can I use adobe illustrator fonts for commercial purposes?

    Hi,
    I have purchased adobe illustrator CS4. Does this mean I can use any of the fonts installed in the program for commercial purposes?
    I am currently doing a t-shirt design and want to use the font Verdana in the design. I plan to reprint and sell this t-shirt indefinitely.
    Is this legal?
    Kay.

    you can use the fonts you can even send the fonts to the printer you can certainly use them on the web, when you send the font it is usually only for the convenience of not having the Print House load the fonts, but since most font hoses have illustrator it is not a problem they have the fonts as well.
    They only keep the fonts with your job if you send it. For instance if you send them a project with a font that is part of their font library hen they will ask you to send them even if another client has  or is using that font. if they get 10 or so instance were the same font shows up and they think it is a trend they buy the font as a convenience for their customers.You can not distribute the fonts to other user not even free fonts.
    But sending it part of the job is fine, printers have no interest starting up with the large foundry houses and they understand the copyright laws and would put themselves in a bad light if they broke this ethic so it is not going to happen for $30.00 for a font.
    You are fine you bought Illustrator and so you have a license for them.
    One difference between the fonts you get from Illustrator and and the ones you purchase is that the ones you purchase are allowed to be installed on five machines usually and the fonts that are included with Illustrator can only be installed with the copy of Illustrator, technically that means two machines.
    But the way it works since you can install the same Illustrator on as many machines as you want but can only activate it on two an use on one of those two at any one time it is possible that you would be in violation of your license since the fonts do not need Adobe activation to be available for other applications.
    So it you're doing that then you're a felon buddy!

  • Can I use ISE demo license for wireless purposes???

    Hi all.
    We want to try an ISE deployment with one or two WLC and the license twe want to use initially is the demo embedded in the ISE appliance. We don't know whether we can do it because demo license covers base and advanced capabilities but not wireless (at least in administration/licensing this box shows "not installed" leyend) and we don't know whether a demo tape of wireless solution will work with this type of licensing; if not, is it possible to get a demo wireless license for ISE?
    Thanks.
    Best Regards.

    The evaluation license does cover the wireless. Its actaully a full license.
    Thanks,

  • Can Oracle Express Edition be used for Internet Web Projects?

    Hi,
    If we have a simple WWW application accessible from internet via WEB server and Web server uses Oracle Express Edition as a "data storage", can Oracle XE be used without violating license (XE limitations)?
    Thank you!

    Don't see why not, although a quote from the Oracle Technology Network Developer License Terms for Oracle Database 11g Express Edition page at the License Rights section, "developing, prototyping and running your applications for your own internal data processing operation..." so that might be leaning into a bit of a grey area. A bit.
    But with something available on the web you'll want to be sure to stay up to date with security patches- and unfortunately XE can not be patched. Just because something can be done, and even works for its intended purpose, doesn't necessarily mean that it is a "good thing to do".
    Nothing wrong with trying something out for learning and figuring out how things work- apex is a nifty development platform, although I've not kept up with the details of the last couple of versions. Too many other things on the "got to learn this, got to do that" list(s).

  • Can I use Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection Edition for Commercial Purposes?

    The title says all. Can I use the student edition of Creative Suite Master Collection CS5.5 for business and commercial purposes? I will use it to create a website for my mother's business, possibly a trailer, a logo, and art along the way. Also, I would like to make videos for a YouTube channel. Can I use the student edition for that?

    Are the Student and Teacher Edition products the same as the commercial products?
    Yes. Adobe Student and Teacher Editions are the same full-version software products.
    So this would count as a yes, correct?

  • Oracle Express Edition And Windows Encrypted File System (EFS)

    Hello,
    I want to use oracle express edition with windows encrypted file system. I tried some possibilities like encrypting xe folder. But connection can not be established when efs is used. Is there a compatibility problem between oracle xe and windows efs? On Oracle's page, it is declared that oracle database is compatible with Windows EFS.
    Thank you for help.

    Pl identify which version of Win 7 - 32-bit or 64-bit ? Home version or something else ?
    The 11g XE install is only available for 32-bit version of Win 7 Professional or higher - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm#BABHICJH. If you are installing on 64-bit version or Home version of Windows, then you are on your own. What is the reason for enabling EFS on this database ?

  • Oracle express edition and JDBC licensing question

    Hi all,
    I am writing a web application that requires a database to work. I also will be selling this application. which leads me to these questions:
    1) legally can i use the oracle express edition?
    2) legally can i use the oracle JDBC driver?
    Thanks,

    Based on the discussions in the XE forum (confirmed by Oracle representatives in official capacity) as well as the license agreement (which you should take to your lawyer tp etermine how to set up the paperwork for your application):
    You can include the Oracle Express Edition in your application. You can charge for your application and give no money back to Oracle for the use of Oracle Express Edition. You can distribute the client-side JDBC that is included in XE as well.
    But - you can not hold Oracle responsible for the operation of the database, nor ask them for support or patches.
    As Eric says - join us over in the XE forum for more discussion of this.
