Oracle XE DB for demo purposes

May I use an Oracle XE DB instance to demo my applications (explicitly not for production but just for dummy data to show functionality)? If customers are interested in the application, I would buy a license on a per-customer base or using a single instance for many customers.

There's a part about demonstrations specifically.

If customers are interested in the application, I would buy a license on a per-customer base or using a single instance for many customers.Standard Database licensing or license terms may not apply to hosting / service providers. You would probably need additional licensing for hosting, if that is what's implied by "for" customers.
I'm not so sure that there's an exception for XE, at least not according to OTN license terms (with "your own internal" key phrase).
I have not seen the wording for hosting easily available online, e.g. https://shop.oracle.com/ , but that may have changed with saas/paas or "cloud" marketing, etc.
Read the article referenced above, but make sure you read the terms and build and test your own understanding of license terms, preferrably with help from your company's lawyers.
Just a quick thought, but one alternative might be AWS, as I believe they can provide instances that runs Oracle Database with some sort of usage based "renting" of licenses.

  • Can someone help me synce my old G5 Motorola to my snow leopard laptop so I can use Quitktime with video screen capabilities for demo purposes and a job I have with a major website? Thanks!

    Is there anyway that I can sync this Motorola G5 dual, OS 10.5.8 with my ibook OS 10.6.8 so I can use the quicktime application on the Mororola? I need to network the two computers and if someone could kindly tell me how to do this with either wifi, USB, orFirewire, I'd be very grateful. My ethernet connection is in use and I only have one and no hub. Doing this will give me the ability to work for a site that needs my expertise in recording but I have old equipment right now on the recording end. No chance to upgrade at this point as we're broke and I'm severly injured, so I am trying to find a workaround that will let me access this copmuter, with snow leapord to work with the old one with (Motorola G5 dual w/10.5.8). It means a few bucks to us if I can make it happen, and my family really need to dough. It  will keep me from having to convert things to a youtube format, take the extra time involved to do that, when, instead, I could just take screen recordings instead. Unfortunately, I don't have Pro Tools on this computer or all would be fixable.
    I'm really hoping that you or someone else can help me get these two macs synced so I can do this. DO you think you can help me? Thanks so much! Scotty Goldberg

    Thanks so much for your reply but that won't help in my current situation. Maybe I didn't make it clear. The latest version of Quicktime as new as it sounds doesn't support screen recording on a powermac G5 Motorola chip with OS 10.5.8 which is the highest os I can go with that machine. If I can sync the two computers so I can get the application to record from my newer computer then I'm ok. I just don't have the recording application for audio that I'm using to demo for the website on the laptop as it's about 10,000 dollars. So, I have to use the older computer to do the audio presentation and try to get the newer computer synced to it so I can use the new version that works on snow leopard to record a screen shot that will hopefully appear on my laptop instead of the old machine. Hope that makes sense. It's a bit confusing but in a nutshell it's like this:
    1. I am a Pro Tools Instructor which is the state of the art application and recording device for audio and movie scoring and I have a new job where I make small snippets of tips using Pro Tools which I'd like to record with quicktime on screen as they happen
    2. the best version of Quicktime Pro available for the Power Mac, OS 10.5.8 will not do screen recording on it.
    3. I can use the Quicktime application from my newer laptop but I need to sync it to the old machine
    4. I'm hoping but I don't know, if I do this, that I can record Pro Tools in action from my new machine buy seeing it on this laptop screen and then recording it with the new quicktime.
    5. If I can sync the two computers, I'm hoping this can happen but I can't use my ethernet connection as I have it used to connect to my recording console and can't afford to buy anything new like an ethernet hub yo connect the two so I'm hoping that there's another way to connect them.
    I hope that makes sense and that possible you or someone else can help. Thanks so much! Scott

  • 10g Forms and Reports Stand-Alone Install for Demo Purposes

    Hi,
    My boss asked me to set-up an Oracle 9i (9.2.0.0) database and OracleAS 10g (9.0.4) Forms and Reports standalone on a laptop she wants to use to demonstrate our Forms and Reports application for a potential customer.
    The laptop is P4 with 512MB RAM, running Windows 2K Pro.
    Has anyone tried this before? Any suggestions appreciated.
    TIA,
    Jim

    1GB of RAM seems to work better. I just upgraded to 1GB from 512MB on a new ThinkPad running XP, 10g release 2 database, and 10.1.2 Application Server (Forms and Reports version). When I had 512, something broke and I wound up resetting the factory defaults using the IBM recovery tool. When I added the extra memory, everything went well. On the other hand, a four-year-old Dell desktop with 512MB works okay. Whatever.

    Take any real time problem and try to create your own schema for that.
    Start with your own requirements and then build it using Oracle.

  • Using Laptop for Demo

    Dear All,
    I am using my laptop for demo purposes.  I have a PC as a license server and upgraded the system from PL05 to PL31.
    Since i was using the laptop as both the client and the server(for demo purposes only), it was showing the "Evaluation Period" message.
    One of my friend told me that i can make it not to show the "Evaluation Period" message, if i connect the laptop to the license server and run the PL upgradation setup.  This task was successfully carried out.
    But now the problem is i am not able to work on the laptop since it is asking for the "license server".  If i connect it on LAN and try, it connects to the DB's on the server or the DB's on the laptop, as i choose.  It is not connecting to the local server (i.e. DB's on the laptop), if LAN card is unplugged.
    Please help!
    Regards,
    Sathya

    Hi,
    You could have permanent license and temporary license that will expire 2 weeks. If you browse this link : https://websmp202.sap-ag.de/~form/
    sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000548322&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000183
    with S-Id that allow you to request license either for your company SAP B1 installation or your clients, you will find contract installation and reseller installation in the website.
    Contract Installation will only give temporary license and Reseller will give permanent but limited amount of user can have it.
    As about license server asking, I think you did not start the license manager 2005 service yet or it is caused by you did not have license yet.
    You actually could not connect to DB's server if no LAN card. For local server (in your note book), you could not connect, I think it is caused that you did not change the server yet.
    To avoid confusing, try to request the license first and let's see if it is helpful.

    That is a question that only Oracle can answer.

    >
    Yes - It's surprising that you even ask that question since you had to agree to those license issues before you were allowed to download the product.
    All users need to agree to the license agreement. See

  • Material send for demo

    Hi,
      If i am sending the materail for demo purpose .
    How this can be handled in SAP B1.
    Please let me know the step by step process.
    regards
    Suresh S

    Hello Suresh,
    Is the material a fixed asset or not ? If it is fixed asset, you must create a special asset name for example sudsam fixed asset in the item master data and tick fixed assets.
    If it is standard inventory, do this following:
    1. Creating item group name : demo and assign it to the demo material and or creating a warehouse code name demo and along with item group demo. in the Gl method by, just use warehouse. if you want just item by level, it is also okay.
    2. speficy or defining its G/L account in the item group (under module administration --> inventory setup --> item group. You must create a account code name demo. it is inventory account.
    3. You must consider document to issue the material. If you want to track the demo material movement, you would be better to create a special business partner (it is a customer, but just an internal) and use inventory transfer. The warehouse of demo material is demo whse and whse code origin is from your main whse. You could use also good issue and good receipt.

  • Configuring Oracle for learning purpose in Laptop

    Hi all,
    I would like to configure Oracle11g in my laptop for learning purpose. Basically i would like to learn PL-SQL by creating some stored procedures and playing around that. Could you just tell me as to how to simulate a pl-sql development environment in home laptop?
    Thanks in advance

    Please clarify what you are referring to as OEM and Rapid Sql.
    If by OEM you mean Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control, a database management console, then you would need one of the "full" editions not XE. I believe you may install and use even Enterprise Edition with a for-free license, as long as it is for pure learning purposes/self-education. See what it says about the OTN license in the top of the [url http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/indexes/downloads/index.html]downloads index page.
    For SQL development tools in general, XE should do fine as long as you build apps within its feature set.
