License Information

You can view or update the license information at any time. The License Information under the Administration tab displays the general information as well as a view of the current status including number of active users, the expiration date, and the volume of data.

Datameer volume-based licensing is based on the total amount of data ingested per license period using the sum of two factors:  

1. Volume of data imported into Datameer.

2. External data accessed by Datameer.

   If external data accessed by Datameer (known as "data links") are used, this is calculated as the sum of the maximum observed sizes for each external data set accessed during the license period.

A warning message displays when the license term is due to expire in less than 7 days, or if the data volume limit is reached.
