It seems crazy to me that they impose imaginary limits on the self-hosted version, you can have a server that can handle more executions, but the license won't allow it.
I mean my current role doesn't put me into these kinds of considerations anymore, but I didn't hear they've changed their ways - so I just thought that's still the way you pay for Oracle DB
Many moons ago I was a sysadmin at a company and first heard about their licensing strategy when sizing up some new multi-socket Opteron servers. First time I learned about per-CPU licensing.
