A new RTC Developer for IBM Enterprise Platforms contains advanced features focused on the needs of z/OS and IBM i development teams
The server license is included with any RTC 3.0 User License
Customers can now install as many servers as RTC 3.0 user licenses purchased on any platform for any purpose!
Customer Benefits:
azz Team Servers in RTC 3.0 can run on ANY supported platform – (System z, System i, Windows, Linux, Unix)
For ANY purpose
– Support disaster recovery installations
– Maintain separate test or training configurations
– Move servers between platforms w/o additional license fees
– Enables teams who need many servers for physical security isolation
– Makes Cloud/SaaS models more cost effective
– Simplifies trade-ups from other Rational products
Easily change and grow your server topology without a licensing transaction
New Flexible Pricing Models
In addition to today’s perpetual license with annual support, RTC 3.0 provides:
New On Demand Pricing - Fixed Term Rental Model
Allows the purchase of fixed term annual licenses
Provides flexible, annual rental model and lower initial cost
New Token Licensing – Unique Investment Protection
A floating fixed term license that floats across Rational products
Provides unique investment protection for customers
And we still have a 10 “free” RTC Developer 10-C license with Community Support
Customers who want full IBM support need to buy user licenses to get IBM support
Mixing Developer 10-C licenses with other licenses results in the entire server being eligible for only Jazz.net community support
Rational Token Licensing
What are Tokens?
Tokens are a form of floating fixed term license but are more flexible in that they allow the customer to mix the different products in real time.
Tokens provide licensing flexibility and insurance against choosing the wrong product
1. Flexible use of Rational solutions: Use the right tool at the right time
2. Streamline License Management: Eliminate “unused” software as the project moves from one development phase to the next
3. Simplify License Purchasing: Customer can add/try new software during project, without new PO or evaluation process
