This sounds too good to be true but with careful planning, this is what Oracle Technology Enterprise Agreements can do for you.<\/p>\n<p>Most users of Oracle products are used to the long-standing metrics such as Processor and Named User Plus as perpetual licenses, however it is worth considering if your deployment of products warrants an alternative mechanism. In this article, we will consider the standard Enterprise Technology Agreements available from Oracle.<\/p>\n<p>Oracle offer two main mechanisms for enterprise licensing for technology products. Generally, these are seen to apply to database, database options and middleware-type products but can also apply to more \u2018obscure\u2019 products in some cases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There are two main models available: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Unlimited License Agreement (ULA), including capped ULAs.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Perpetual License Agreement (PULA).<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>These models differ to the standard license model (e.g. Processor perpetual) in that once you have products covered by one of these mechanisms, you can deploy more without additional cost until the unlimited deployment period ends.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ULA Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A ULA allows you to use an unlimited amount of a defined set of products, for a specific period (often 2-5 years). At the end of the specified period, you declare your amount of usage which becomes your perpetual license \u2013 you ultimately end up with the same type of license (a fixed quantity of Processor licenses) as you would if you had purchased \u2018normal\u2019 perpetual licenses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You pay an up-front license fee, there is no true-up at any point. Support is based on existing support and an incremental fee based on the upfront capex cost.<\/li>\n<li>You may use as much of the defined products as you like, without limit (it is possible to buy \u2018capped\u2019 ULAs which have an upper-limit to deployment).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the example below, you can see that the cost of the ULA is \u00a33M, which has new support of \u00a3660k \u2013 this is then added to the existing support of \u00a3500k making a single and indivisible stream of support of \u00a31.16M. Old licenses are converted and replaced by the unlimited deployment right. The on-going support stream of \u00a31.16M is indivisible; there is no chance to reduce this in the future even if your usage reduces.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.version1.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Image-1.png\" alt=\"ULA Summary Overview\" loading=\"lazy\"><strong>ULAs: Detailed Considerations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are a few things to consider if you are thinking about choosing an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.version1.com\/negotiating-software-contracts\/\">Oracle ULA<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Support Fee:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is an interesting and key part of ULAs. Existing support for the products included in the ULA will be added to your new ULA support fee. Support and maintenance is linked to the initial ULA license fee and the first year is paid upfront. Support and maintenance, like \u2018normal\u2019 licenses, is opex paid annually. If your current Oracle Database Enterprise Edition support and maintenance cost is \u00a3200k per year, and your ULA (just for DB EE) costs \u00a34m (support at 22%, giving \u00a3880k per year), your total new annual support will be \u00a31.08m on-going.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What happens to your old licenses?<\/strong> Any licenses for products on the ULA will be \u2018converted and replaced\u2019- i.e. you have no rights to use these after your ULA starts. This is not a problem: you have a ULA!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unlimited really means unlimited:<\/strong>\u00a0you can use as many of the products on the list as you like. ULAs are for a defined set of products and getting the product list agreed at time of negotiation is very important. You need to ensure users only deploy ULA products and not additional products without relevant licenses. You can license a server using ULA and non-ULA licenses (e.g. Database as part of a ULA and Advanced Compression via non-ULA Processor licenses) &#8211; however, bear in mind that when certified, your unlimited deployment products will be licensed with Processor licenses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ULA Pricing<\/strong>: This will sound obvious, but the key consideration is how much of the unlimited product you are expecting to use, and how much that would cost if you bought \u2018normal\u2019 perpetual licenses. Doing this requires some insightful modelling. There are a large number of variables to consider here:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Likely cost of \u2018normal\u2019 incremental purchase.<\/li>\n<li>\u2018Known\u2019 versus \u2018unknown\u2019 license requirements.<\/li>\n<li>How much potential is there to fully utilise the \u2018Unlimited\u2019 component of the ULA? Is the strategy to deploy more onto \/ exploit these Oracle products?.<\/li>\n<li>What degree of certainty is there that planned projects will go ahead and make use of the products to the level forecast?.<\/li>\n<li>Is there any chance of under-utilising the ULA? This is a serious risk to you!.<\/li>\n<li>Discount levels for incremental purchases.<\/li>\n<li>How much is the ULA likely to cost? (A critical question!).<\/li>\n<li>What products need to be included in the ULA? How might your Oracle strategy change over the term? It may be hard to balance an unlimited approach for certain products whilst being restricted by traditional licensing counts for other products.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Typically, due to the risk of lost future revenues to Oracle and the benefits you can derive, ULAs are significant multi-million-pound investments. As with all Oracle licensing, working out the licensing requirement and purchase is dependent on both technical expertise (ensuring the correct license requirement is calculated) as well as commercial and financial expertise<\/p>\n<p>Do not let the number of variables put you off here. Think about the potential value of a ULA and the flexibility and savings it could provide your business. Oracle ULAs are an excellent way to gain control of your Oracle licensing quickly and to provide your business with a clear strategy without worrying about additional licensing costs. Remember: you pay a \u2018flat fee\u2019 to use as much of the Oracle ULA products on the agreement as you like without any impact\u2014no change to support costs, no additional capex. Buying a ULA is not a trivial task \u2013 it is a significant purchase which needs proficiency in understanding Oracle licensing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Managing Your Use Throughout a ULA Unlimited Deployment Period<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Firstly, you must communicate the ULA purchase internally, detailing what it allows to the appropriate software users, administrators and architects to do (anyone who can influence the amount of Oracle software your business will deploy). It is important that full details of what the terms of the ULA and the products involved are passed on in a concise and comprehendible way. You must distil the content and tell people what products are available for unlimited deployment, and for how long they will remain unlimited.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a real danger that the actual allowance and detail of the ULA gets lost between those who negotiated it and those who use and deploy the software (this is a problem outside of ULAs as well, but the potential risk when the belief that all Oracle software is available for unlimited use is bigger).<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps, contrary to expectations, owning a ULA means you must pay <strong>more<\/strong> attention to SAM and the amount of software you deploy and use. You need to know that you are following or exceeding your forecast \u2013 there is little point in having a ULA and not gaining the return you expected. There is a danger that you deploy far less of the software than forecast (e.g. change of product choice, cancellation of a project) and suddenly the original business case for the ULA is eroded and you may lose out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ULA Declaration<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you do not track your usage throughout the term of the ULA, you may find yourself frantically undertaking an Oracle audit of your own usage on the run up to the declaration date: doing so may mean you \u2018miss\u2019 installations (and hence they are not licensed) or you count incorrectly. Measuring for an Oracle ULA is not quite the same as for \u2018normal\u2019 Oracle licensing, for example consideration of how cloud deployments are licensed and how they should be declared (if at all). Policies such as those for VMware may actually work in your interest and so you should ensure you understand them fully. You should plan for at least a year in advance for your declaration; perhaps more.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have measured your deployment (which can be very difficult), you need to fill in a declaration form: this is what Oracle will use as the basis for your perpetual license. However, it is worth bearing in mind that there is a potential for audit or \u2018informal review\u2019 at this point, to allow Oracle to verify your usage. This is another reason to make sure you invest in this process and that you thoroughly understand your estate and the terms of the ULA.<\/p>\n<p>Oracle may try and pitch a new ULA (sometimes touted as a ULA renewal) &#8211; great care should be taken regarding this and you should consider if you want to further increment your overall support stream: inevitably, you will need to declare your ULA at some point or switch to a PULA.<\/p>\n<p>Planning for declaration is critical and care needs to be taken to ensure you are aware of the milestone dates set out in your contract. The below example shows a timeline for the last few months\u2014as you can see, there are several key dates to be aware of.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.version1.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Image-2.png\" alt=\"ULA Declaration\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Perpetual Unlimited License Agreements (PULA)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PULAs are a more modern offering from Oracle and allow (typically very large) enterprises the right to have an on-going period of unlimited usage without a defined certification date or date upon which the unlimited right is lost; they are largely the same with the mechanics of purchasing and the above description of ULAs applies apart from declaration. This of course allows a huge amount of value to be derived from the Oracle software. The downside to a PULA, besides an increased price is, once again the support streams are combined into a single indivisible support stream: if you ever have plans of reducing your Oracle deployment, a PULA (or indeed a ULA) probably isn\u2019t the right thing for you. Additionally, you need to conscious of the fact that you may lose control of your deployment and measurement of product \u2013 although this may not be an immediate concern to you, there will be products not covered by the PULA which need careful management to ensure continued compliance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>PULAs\/ULAs are a very powerful and beneficial (usually) way of licensing Oracle. They are significant purchases that require assessment and planning.<\/li>\n<li>You may use as much of the software as you like during the period of the ULA or perpetually for a PULA.<\/li>\n<li>There is no true up, the opex and capex are set from the start. You will not be able to reduce your support easily at any point in the future.<\/li>\n<li>Education and \u2018awareness raising\u2019 about your ULA\/PULA is key to it being used correctly.<\/li>\n<li>On-going usage tracking and management are even more important with a ULA\/PULA.<\/li>\n<li>ULAs and PULAs are a significant investment and should be negotiated, benchmarked, managed and declared with expert advice.<\/li>\n<li>Negotiating terms and conditions is critical to ensuring you get the best deal for your enterprise.
