Licensing Options
Various license models are available:
- Node-locked license where the license is tied to a specific PC. Note that this is not suitable for CI/CD envoronments, see below.
- Floating license where the license is retrieved from an on-premise license server. Options for:
- single-site
- three sites
- worldwide
- CI/CD build server where codebases are built by build servers such as Jenkins.
