c-treeACE Server Pricing
   
For c-treeACE developers planning to deploy c-treeACE Servers, there are two configurations to choose from: the User Licensing model or the Connection Licensing model.
User Licensing Model
- Supports a stated number of concurrent users, with a maximum number of connections (or threads) per user.
- This is not a "named user" licensing scheme - any user can access the server as long as the stated number of concurrent users (based on IP address) is not exceeded.
- Ideal for applications such as desktop accounting packages where there is a well defined number of users and number of connections per user. For example, assume you have an accounting system with 10 users. Each user is running from their own computer and may initiate up to 4 connections (or 4 instances of the accounting system) to the c-treeACEServer. In this example, the total connections available will be 40 (10 Users X 4 Connections = 40) but each user will be limited to 4 connections.
- Perpetual and annual licensing available.
Connection Licensing Model
- Supports a pool of concurrent connections with no limit on the number of users (i.e., nodes or devices) that can connect to the server as long as the total number of concurrent connections licensed is not exceeded.
- Ideal for multi-tier enterprise systems where a single mid-tier device may run a multi-threaded application that opens tens or hundreds of concurrent connections to the database.
- Perpetual and annual licensing available.
Please Note: The pricing shown is for qualified OEMs who have developed a commercial application using c-treeACE. If you are an end-user of an application that uses c-treeACE technology, we encourage you to contact your application vendor for pricing and licensing information.

Annual Licensing
The pricing examples shown above include both a perpetual license price and an annual license price. The annual licensing model offers several benefits for ISVs including:
- Low price entry point making it easy to migrate from a standalone (non-server) operational model and to incorporate the server pricing into your annual maintenance program.
- Includes all updates to the c-treeACE Servers, allowing you to always have access to the latest server technology for all of your deployments.
- The perfect solution for ASPs who deploy applications on a subscription basis
The Annual Licensing option is only available for OEM customers who are able to commit to specific deployment volumes via a signed agreement with FairCom.
