Oracle Java Cost Calculator

How much could Oracle Java cost you?

Oracle's Java SE Universal Subscription is priced per employee, contractor and company-wide — not per Java install.

Oracle's "Employee" definition is broad — full-time, part-time, and temporary staff, plus contractors, agents, and consultants who support your internal operations. Include everyone that could plausibly count, not just the people who use Java.

This is Oracle's published list price — a starting reference point, not a quote. Negotiated rates, existing contracts, and the specific facts of your estate can all change the real number. If an audit finds prior unlicensed use, Oracle can typically assess back fees for up to the 3 preceding years, on top of the current year and a forward commitment for the year ahead — meaning a settlement can span up to 5 years of fees at once, not just one year's subscription. None of this is fixed — list price, back fees, and settlement terms are all negotiable, and that's usually where the real number ends up.
