New Oracle Site License

The new universitywide Oracle site license agreement allows campus departments to acquire their own copies of Oracle CD-ROMs for a nominal fee. Basic technical support is provided at no cost through I.T.'s Information Resources group. Departments interested in having support directly from Oracle may purchase Oracle's Silver-level support package, which provides for three technical support contacts.

More extensive Oracle consulting services are offered by two I.T. consulting groups, which offer services at an hourly rate:

• The first group, led by Tim Olesen (757-8785), provides departmental and workgroup server consulting focusing primarily on Oracle software installation, database design, and administration. Customers may purchase consulting services in bronze, silver, and gold support packages.

• The second group, led by Charles Raley (757-8790), focuses on departmental workstation needs, serving the Oracle software development environment, and client/server tools such as SQL Net and ODBC drivers.
