Custom App How many licenses needed for most cost-effective solution? Assumption: 20 Business Partners are allowed to access Custom App & SQL
Custom App (Cont.) • There is a total of 6 servers running Windows Server software (firewall; authentication; file/print; SQL; custom application; Exchange), 6 Windows Server licenses are required. • For employees access: 5 Windows User CALs or 7 Windows Device CALs (note that for employees, doesn’t matter if access is internal or external). • It is more cost-effective to license employees on a User CAL because there are fewer users than devices. • For business partners access: 20 Windows User CALs or 4 External Connector licenses (1 for each of firewall server & authentication server, and 1 for each of the servers they get access to—in this case, SQL and custom application servers). • And since the External Users are known (and limited in number), it is more cost-effective to acquire individual Windows CALs for them as opposed to acquiring EC licenses for each server accessed by the External Users (20 x $30* vs. 4 x $2000*).
