Oracle to Offer Free Database

Tuesday Oracle is expected to announce the beta release of Oracle 10g Express Edition (Oracle Database XE), a free version of its flagship to compete with free and open source options. It should available by the end of the year and is limited to running on servers with one processor, with 4GB of disk memory and 1GB of memory. It’s unclear to me if Locator (the “comes with it” spatial offering) is part of it.

This version is aimed at small businesses, students and developers who might want to embed it in applications.
