How does the core limit work?
For our server license, we specify a limit of how many server cores you can run JDeli on. This is a limit of the total amount of CPU cores you may use in production for JDeli.
This approach allows you to use cloud or on-premise servers in order to best suit your needs.
When running JDeli in cloud services, Virtual CPU cores (vCPU) are equivalent to physical CPU cores for this license limit.
For example:
If you have a limit of 8 cores, that gives you a maximum of 8 cores to distribute as you require.
- 1 server with 8 (v)CPU cores is counted as 8 cores
- 2 servers with 4 (v)CPU cores is counted as 8 cores
- 8 servers with 1 (v)CPU core is counted as 8 cores
As long as the total amount of server CPU cores is below the limit, it is a valid use of the license.
What about non-production servers?
On the server license we do not count non-production systems towards this limit. If you require a dev/staging server, it will not count towards the server core limit.
If the product is needed during a development testing pipeline, we will not count it in the server core limit.
What if you need more cores?
