What license models are available?

The UBIK® license model consists of Server-, TAG- and CLIENT-licenses. There are two fundamental licensing models – the TAG-driven and the CLIENT-driven model. It is not possible to mix the two models.

CLIENT driven license model

CLIENT-driven licensing means that CLIENT -license packages have to be put on top of the mandatory server licenses, according to the number of clients (i.e. Tablets, Smartphones, Notebooks, access via web applications …) using UBIK®. The amount of Server Licenses is depending on the CLIENTs to be served, where one Server License can handle a maximum of 30 CLIENTs. It is furthermore recommended to use one dedicated server (physical or virtual) per 10000 TAGs; hence, the number of required server licenses increases. There are 3 different editions (Basic, Advanced and Professional) available with different functionality content. The functionality content of editions is shown at the Augmensys Homepage. The minimum setup per installation consists of one UBIK® server license and at least one CLIENT-license package.

TAG driven license model

TAG-driven licensing means that TAG-license packages have to be put on top of the mandatory server licenses, according to the number of administrated/published TAGs in UBIK®. One TAG is defined as one individual object with distinctive properties, i.e. a piece of equipment like a motor, a pump, a valve, a temperature sensor, etc. The amount of Server Licenses is depending on the TAGs to be served, where one Server License can handle a maximum of 10000 TAGs. It is furthermore recommended to use one dedicated server (physical or virtual) per 30 Clients; hence, the number of required server licenses increases. There are 3 different editions (Basic, Advanced and Professional) available with different functionality content. The functionality content of editions is shown at the Augmensys Homepage. The minimum setup per installation consists of one UBIK® server license and at least one TAG-license package.
