Gartner: Oracle is targeting users on Java compliance after new licensing terms
Gartner is warning that Oracle"actively targets organizations" on Java compliance following the introduction of new contractual terms for the code.
In a research paper, the global tech analyst said both existing Oracle customers and those with no Oracle products were being targeted by Big Red after the software and hardware vendor introduced the new Java SE Universal Subscription. In January, Oracle – which acquired Java with its $7.4 billion buyout of Sun Microsystems in 2009 – announced the new Java SE Universal Subscription as"a simple, low-cost monthly subscription that includes Java SE Licensing and Support for use on Desktops, Servers or Cloud deployments."
"Customers of the legacy Java SE Subscription products continue to receive all the original benefits and may renew under their existing terms and metrics," it said. However, licensing compliance experts warned Oracle would pressure users onto the new model as time goes by.
