Abstract:
Today, the use of software is regulated by licenses, whether they are free, paid for and with or without access to its sources. The number of licenses required for specific software can be calculated with several metrics, each defined by the software vendor. This article will present the impact and importance of managing those licenses when using software in a clouded architecture. We will therefore propose a study of one software sold by Oracle: the Oracle database. We will first review the existing situation and the current problem, then we will propose a deployment algorithm that takes into account two specific metrics for this software. Finally, we will compare our results with various existing deployment algorithms.
