What exactly can one do with embedded Oracle Database?

My organization is using Redhat JBoss EBB and Oracle Enterprise Database.

Can we embed products by using these two different products, as Oracle Enterprise is itself an embedded database? If a client asks us to provide embed products, can we fulfill his requirement?

The contract (and, in fact, the negotiations) will show you some limitations of use, but in practice any vendor can fulfil them.
