As of 2017, the latest Oracle Database version (12.2.0.1) comes in three editions for on-
premises deployments[14]:
Up to (and including) Oracle Database 12c release 12.1.0.1, Oracle also offered the
following:
Oracle Database Standard Edition (SE) for single or clustered servers with a
maximum capacity of 4 CPU sockets. It was largely the same as the current SE2
edition and included Real Application Clusters for use on server clusters with a
maximum of 4 CPU sockets.
Oracle Standard Edition One (SE1), was first introduced with Oracle Database 10g. It
offered the same features as SE and was licensed to run on single servers with a
maximum of 2 CPU sockets.
Oracle Corporation discontinued SE and SE1 with the 12.1.0.2 release, and stopped offering
new licenses for these editions on December 1, 2015.
