As part of our PaaS – Self Service effort, there is a desire to provide developers the ability to provision their own TCservers, WebLogic servers, MSSql and Oracle databases. The first 3 are under control to a degree but the Oracle portion is one that could be a problem. Within Vmware we have the ability to limit the number of software instances being populated into the OS . Trying to be in compliance with software licensing on Oracle can be a little more of an issue. What are the options available to support software metering and what is the industry doing to stay in compliance?
