Finsys is Oracle Gold Partner

Back-End Of The Finsys ERP Is “Oracle” Database

Computer Software Required to Run Finsys ERP Efficiently

  1. Oracle Database Licence ( Free Cost Period ):

    1. The “customer” company shall arrange for the Oracle Database at its own cost.

    2. However, for first one year, we recommend, you to use, Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition Software Licence (“Free” Evaluation version). This works upto maximum of 11 GB database, 1 GB RAM and 1 thread of processor speed.

    3. This works fine for initial months/years, or number of users is below 20.

    4. The Customer abides to take the server of the specs as per Oracle policy – higher server specs need higher number of Oracle licences.

  1. Paid Oracle Licence

    1. As and when you purchase Oracle licences, we can help you purchase the Oracle database licences

    2. Oracle software Investment Guide, policies, prices are available on Oracle website oracle.com. And Finsys as an Oracle Partner, is bound by it. You may see the Investment Guide at

      1. www.oracle.com/us/corporate/pricing/technology-price-list-070617.pdf

      2. http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/pricing/software-investment-guide/index.html

  1. Oracle 18C / 19C / 20c

    1. 20c is the latest version of Oracle Database.

    2. This is working fine with Finsys ERP

    3. New Oracle Licenced users shall be rolled out on this , usually

 

  1. Invitation to Upgrade to “Paid” Oracle Database

    1. Since the Evaluation version has its limitations and conditions, therefore we recommend after the trial period, Customer must upgrade to Regular Paid version of Oracle Database version

    2. Benefits of Upgrading to Paid Oracle (via Finsys Gold edition) are as under

    3. Freedom to use full capacity of your CPU

      1. The Express Edition is capped to work only with one single thread in your processor. So, every instruction goes via a sequential Queue.

      2. However, with the formal paid edition, you can use all 16 threads of your processor. Thus, Speed increases substantially on use of Oracle paid licences vs XE

    4. Freedom to use full RAM

      1. The Express Edition is capped to work only with one GB out of your RAM available.

      2. So, even if you have 16 GB RAM… in case of Express Edition, your Oracle Database will be limited to use only 1 GB out of that. So, obviously the server will not be used at full capacity, hence speed will be slow.

  • Here, with the formal paid edition, you can use full RAM installed

  1. Thus, Speed increases substantially on use of Oracle paid licences vs Express Edition.

  1. Freedom to use the full Hard Disk Space

    1. The Express Edition is capped to work only with 11GB out of your Hard Disk available.

    2. With the formal paid edition, you can use full Hard Disk 500 GB installed and made available for oracle.

  1. Benefit of In-Memory Computing

    1. The licenced Oracle from version 12c onwards has, introduced the “Very fast” RAM based in-memory computing. This makes the computing even faster.

  1. Unlimited Oracle users recommended,

    1. The Break Even point of Oracle is about 25 users. After that number the unlimited number of users is preferable and cheaper due to fix cost.

    2. We recommend you to take Unlimited user processor licence

  • This Users count is subject to only Finsys users you purchased from Finsys.

  1. Unlimited life,

    1. This is a “perpetual licence”, so, no yearly cost. Conditions Apply.

  1. Unlimited processor Cores

    1. Single server socket Processor’s capacity is measured in number of cores

    2. So, even if your server Socket has 4 or 8 or 16 or 32 cores, your licence cost is same for SE2.

  • This is a big saving from the Oracle SE1 policy, where it used to increase proportionately. 16 cores meant 8 licences to be purchased

  1. Some other excellent facilities which are available in the Oracle Paid editions are absent in the Evaluation version (XE version).

  2. FIL can help you reduce the Oracle cost, if you upgrade to Finsys GOLD at that time. Please feel free to contact FIL for the latest Quote for the Oracle Licences, or Finsys Gold Upgrade. We are Oracle Gold Partners, and have seen the benefits of upgrading to Oracle paid version, at many clients.

  1. Purchase of Microsoft Software Licences:

    1. The “customer” company shall arrange for the Operating System Software at its own cost :-

    2. Operating system for Server. :Both Windows and Linux are OK. Any version.

    3. Operating system for Nodes : Only Windows is supported for nodes. ( all versions )

    4. Microsoft Windows CAL (Client Access Licences), have to be taken in case you take Windows on the Server. However, this requirement is NIL, in case you choose Linux OS for your Server.

    5. Note : Windows licences are fully required for the N-computing users also.

    6. All Logos and Tradenames are copyrights of their respective owners.

  • A. Option 1- (least cost option) = 11 g Express Edition ( Free of Cost )
  • We are a Oracle Licenced Gold Partner, Hence we are authorized to load this Oracle version XE to your server, officially free of cost, during the Trial stage.
  • This is ideal for any new customer.
  • It is fully functional. However this educational version has two constraints.
  • First, it works upto maximum of 11 GB database. Now, Finsys ERP is an Intellegently designed ERP. It is sometimes hard to believe, how this Free edition is usually sufficient for first 3 to 6 years of working of an Small business enterprise, ( depending of data volume being entered ). Anyway works fine for first one year to most companies.
  • Second, it shall use only 1 GB of Random Access Memory (RAM). This constraint will not harm upto 10 users. Between 10 to 20 users, speed is still OK-OK. However after 20 concurrent users, the Oracle response will be a bit slow. Hence in that case you can go for option 2 below.
  • B. Option 2- 11g "Standard Edition Two" under Embedded scheme
  • In this option, You must get the official server license.
  • You can get this from us for unlimited users for up to 2 cores processor for a very reasonable annual rental. ( this is ok for a small to mid size server).
  • C. Option 3 - 11g "Standard Edition Two" under limited users / Named user plus scheme
  • This is even faster and is the correct licence for good servers but less user load.
  • One time, life time, high speed oracle licence for limited user strength.
  • D. Option 4 - Other versions of Oracle
  • Many other high end versions are available. They are fit for high-end server machines.
  • You may plan for them directly from oracle, only if you need one.
  • Recommended if you want to get even better features like Disk partitioning etc.
