19 Working in multi-user mode (floating license)
An IZYTRONIQ floating license model means defining a maximum number of users that are permitted to access the same database
simultaneously. Hence, the IZYTRONIQ floating license model differs from the workstation-based license model, in which the workstation
license is coupled with the hardware. In the concurrent user license model, the software itself can be installed on an infinite number of
computers. A central server manages the licenses, which are also called floating licenses or network licenses. The server registers the
number of currently issued licenses and grants to each eligible user the right to access the database in principle. But once all licenses
have been issued, an additional, competing user must wait until another user ends a session, freeing up a license to be used else-
where.
In other words, the software for a floating license with five concurrent users can be used by more than five users, but no more than five
users can access the software simultaneously at any time.
20 Data replication using the server
Data replication describes multiple saving of the same data at different locations and the downstream synchronization of these data
sources. In general, IZYTRONIQ ENTERPRISE Ultimate replication is used to make data available both on- and offline at several locations.
Here, the user can transfer a subset of the main IZYTRONIQ ENTERPRISE Premium database to a local database or notebook/tablet and
then work with this data, even when offline. The data collected locally can be synchronized with the main database at a later stage.
When working in a larger testing team, the interaction between IZYTRONIQ ENTERPRISE Premium and IZYTRONIQ ENTERPRISE Ultimate
ensures that data conflicts are largely prevented, and that they are detected when the data is transferred back at the latest.
