Standard Licensing

Ox and Falcon both process log messages – data which originates on source machines referred to as clients. Log messages are generated on one or more client computers and routed to one or more instances of Ox and/or Falcon, servers, for evaluation and processing. Ox and Falcon are separate products and are licensed independently and on a per client basis independent of connectivity model and/or message routing configration. Users may install an unlimited number of instances of Ox and/or Falcon provided they purchase a license for each client. For example, a single instance of Ox may be used to process log messages for multiple clients or, conversely, multiple instances of Ox may be used to redundantly process log messages for a single client.

Per-component Licensing

Ox and Falcon are both multi-component products and are sold standard with all components. If your firm has special licensing and/or budgetary requirements our sales department will welcome the opportunity to discuss purchase on a per-component basis.
