On April 10, 2025 an important change in the licensing model was introduced: the minimum number of cores ordered increased from 16 to 72, both for new licenses and for renewals.
Important: This only applies in Americas and APJ region, not in EMEA.
In EMEA, the new policy has been withdrawn and only the existing 16 core rule applies.
Rules:
- All core-based products are sold with a 16-core per CPU minimum.
- If you have an existing contract, you can add capacity in any quantity.
- For each core-based product you must place an new order or renew an existing order for at least 72 cores.
Example:
- Customer has 48 cores and wants a new contract, they need to buy 72 cores.
- Customer has already a contract with 16 cores, they need to buy 48 cores as capacity.
