Effective July 24, 2014, select IBM InfoSphere Information Server products will be offered under a new set of prices and pricing metrics that deliver greater value and flexibility to IBM clients.
Changes are made to the following metrics:
- Removal of authorized user metric: Clients no longer need to specifically entitle users via a separate authorized user requirement in addition to the processor value unit (PVU) metric. Organizations now have the right to use the software with an unlimited number of users under the PVU licensing model.
- Simplification of PVU counting rules: Clients now count and entitle the largest of either the engine or service tier, rather than counting both the engine and service tier. This change gives clients more flexibility in the deployment topology of the software without requiring additional entitlement in many cases.
The following products are affected by this change:
- The components within the IBM InfoSphere Information Server Packages offering (5725-G05):
- InfoSphere Information Server Enterprise Edition
- InfoSphere Information Server for Data Integration
- InfoSphere Information Server for Data Quality
- InfoSphere Information Governance Catalog
- The component within the InfoSphere Information Server Workgroup Edition offering (5725-C81): InfoSphere Information Governance Catalog Workgroup Edition
- The component within the IBM InfoSphere Information Server for SAP Applications (5725-D65): InfoSphere Information Server Ready to Launch for SAP Applications
