AFSU
AFSU
The Oracle ASFU license is a comprehensive licensing model tailored for ISVs who wish to bundle Oracle technology with their proprietary applications for distribution to their end-users.
Key Characteristics:
- Bundling and Distribution:
Allows ISVs to include Oracle technology within their application packages, offering a unified solution to end-users.
- End-User Restrictions:
While end-users can fully utilize the Oracle technology as part of the ISV application, they are prohibited from leveraging it for any purposes beyond the scope of the ISV application itself.
- Versatility:
Suitable for ISVs looking to enhance their applications with Oracle’s advanced technology features while maintaining control over the application’s distribution and usage.
ESL

ESL
The Oracle ESL offers a more integrated approach for ISVs, permitting the embedding of Oracle software directly into their applications.
Under this model, Oracle software becomes a fundamental component of the ISV application, effectively making the Oracle software and the ISV application a single, indistinguishable product.
Under this model, Oracle software becomes a fundamental component of the ISV application, effectively making the Oracle software and the ISV application a single, indistinguishable product.
Key Characteristics:
- Deep Integration:
Oracle software is deeply integrated and indistinguishable from the ISV application, providing a seamless experience to the end-user.
- Inseparability:
The embedded Oracle software cannot be separated from the ISV application or used independently, ensuring that the value of the Oracle technology directly supports the ISV application’s functionality.
- Targeted Usage:
Ideal for ISVs whose applications require the robust functionality of Oracle technology to operate but wish to keep the Oracle components invisible to the end-user.
Proprietary Application Hosting License
While not as commonly referenced as ASFU or ESL, the Proprietary Application Hosting License is another important option for ISVs, particularly those offering Software as a Service (SaaS) or hosting their applications on behalf of their customers.
This license supports ISVs in leveraging Oracle technologies to host and manage their applications on Oracle platforms, providing a scalable and secure environment for application deployment.
