So ? If your license restricts you to 100, that's all you can use.

A departmental server often needs a server for testing and perhaps
one other server for failover. We want you to be able to support this
configuration so we have an option of $6k/cpu but no matter how many CPUs you
have you cannot have more than 100 concurrent users.

For enterprise you pay per CPU and your configuration can be
whatever you please with as many users as you can handle.

So you
think you *can* cluster the 6k version of the product but they
only allow you 100 users?

Does that mean that for 20k the enterprise version gives you unlimited
users over an unlimited number of CPU's? I bet this isnt so. So I am
still confused as to what the difference between the 6k and the free
product is.

RE: [flexcoders] What is the difference between versions of Flex Data Services

2006-07-02 Thread Matt Chotin










The question is how important is
scalability to your app. If it needs to scale that means multiple machines (or
at least processors) and in that case you need to pay. A lighter-weight app
may be fine using one CPU in which case FDS Express is the way to go. We
expect Express to be used for personal stuff but most business apps that have
scalability requirements will need a paid license.

Hmm...

So this would mean you can have as many users as you want on one box
for free, or you can have a generally unused failover box and a limit
of 100 users for 6k.

I'm not getting the value proposition.

Hank

 I would imagine it depends if you have active/passive or active/active
 failover.
 In the former case, only one server is ever running at a time, ergo one
 license needed.

There are two types of clustering. One type involves the FDS sharing information between nodes. The second type is for remoting, and other similar services where basic load balancers are used.Does the express license allow us to use load balancers where there is no FDS clustering involved?

RE: [flexcoders] What is the difference between versions of Flex Data Services

2006-06-30 Thread Jack W. Caldwell





IMHO . . . .

It is not a matter of a server being able to handle more 
than 100 simultaneous connections.

As many on this forum have said, it depends on the 
application.

It is more likely a product pricing decision by 
Adobe.

However, if you as a developer and through testing 
determine you need 150 simultaneous
connections, for now you must purchase the $ 20K enterprise 
version. And that is still
on only 1 CPU.

Seems to me that a tiered pricing plan would make more 
sense. There is a big difference
between $6K and $ 20K, especially if your need is only 
slightly above the 100 user limit.

Maybe for another $ 2,000you can get an additional 
100 users, so now you have a 200
user limit. And so on and so on.

I would think Adobe would make a lot more sales this way as 
opposed to $ 6K and $ 20K.

It seems that Adobe is hung-up on PER CPU. I guess 
that is the nature of enterprise server
platforms. But gee . . . . 

Question: What do you guys think? Would you 
rather pay per CPU or blocks of simultaneous
connections?

Again . . . . my .02.

Jack

A departmental server 
often needs a server for testing and perhaps one other server for failover. 
We want you to be able to support this configuration so we have an option 
of $6k/cpu but no matter how many CPUs you have you cannot have more than 100 
concurrent users.

For enterprise you pay 
per CPU and your configuration can be whatever you please with as many users as

No, the key here is the idea of an
application. How many CPUs does your application potentially interact
with (which often means how many CPUs behind the load-balancer, not how many a
given app touches). In FDS Express your application can only potentially
talk to one CPU, and you get that for free. In departmental 100
concurrent users can interact with your potential CPUs at $6K a CPU. Full
license is as many users as you want across all the CPUs.

There are two types of clustering. One type involves
the FDS sharing information between nodes. The second type is for remoting, and
other similar services where basic load balancers are used.

Does the express license allow us to use load balancers where there is no FDS
clustering involved?

I would love to hear if there is any other similarly priced server
software technology (and I'm not talking ERP or something) on the market.

I am in awe.

Hank



But has anybody bothered to call and ask Adobe what this all means or
are we all relying on speculation and gossip of a news list and based on that
information, judging Adobe to have priced themselves out of the market.  I
suspect a company as experienced as Adobe is very much aware of the market and
what other similar technologies go for.



I would suspect the way it might work is that a large organization
would have a FDS server that many other servers talk to for the FDS tasks. 
This is supposed to be a multi-tier concept is it not?  Do you guys running large
enterprise systems put an Oracle database server on all your web servers?  We
do not. 



That is my uniformed 2cents.  And since I know our organization can get
by for a long time on the free version and maybe, eventually, someday the 6k version;
when and if we get around to using FDS in the first place.  So far what I have
played with works very well with the ColdFusion flash remoting connection,
which is a free upgrade to our ColdFusion license.  I am not too concerned
about the large version for the foreseeable future.

Our questions are based on what Matt said, not

The bottom line, the pricing model has not been adequately 
communicated.

I am not blaming Matt. He has had a lotto do 
lately and it is probably not his
area of responsibility,but Adobe should have already 
had this information available.

Matt should not have to be the one to do 
everything.

Regardless, Matt is here on this forum . . . so we 
ask.

However, for myself and I think Hank and I am sure for 
others, we want to know
today whatthe costs are going to look like as our 
current applications scale or
future applications may need.

To me, its called due diligence.

Again my .02.

A departmental server often needs a server
for testing and perhaps one other server for failover. We want you to be
able to support this configuration so we have an option of $6k/cpu but no
matter how many CPUs you have you cannot have more than 100 concurrent users.



For enterprise you pay per CPU and your
configuration can be whatever you please with as many users as you can handle.



HTH,

So you
think you *can* cluster the 6k version of the product but they
only allow you 100 users?

Does that mean that for 20k the enterprise version gives you unlimited
users over an unlimited number of CPU's? I bet this isnt so. So I am
still confused as to what the difference between the 6k and the free
product is.

 If you run a beefy app (not just using proxying but Data Management

 100 :)

  I understand there is a free version of fds, and 6k version,
  and a 20k version of fds.
 
  But I cant find any detailed info about this on the website.
 
  One of the key questions I have is what is the difference
  between the free version and the 6k version. Supposedly the
  free version will only allow for one app on one CPU. but as I
  understand it, the 6k version only allow for 100 users. So
  does the free one have the same restrictions or not. It
  sounds like the free one is better than the 6k one, though I
  am sure thats not the case.
 
  Anyway, a detailed description of the value proposition for
  each version would be very helpful.
 
  Thanks

So does this means that with the enterprise servers if you wanted one machine for production and one for failover it would be 40k?On 6/29/06, Matt Chotin

A departmental server often needs a server

For enterprise you pay per CPU and your
configuration can be whatever you please with as many users as you can handle.

So you
think you *can* cluster the 6k version of the product but they
only allow you 100 users?

Does that mean that for 20k the enterprise version gives you unlimited
users over an unlimited number of CPU's? I bet this isnt so. So I am
still confused as to what the difference between the 6k and the free
product is.

 If you run a beefy app (not just using proxying but Data Management

 100 :)

  am sure thats not the case.
 
  Anyway, a detailed description of the value proposition for
  each version would be very helpful.

Tom:

That would be nice if that is the case.

However, I can't really see Adobe saying that we
purchase 1 license and install on 2 servers, even 
though only one is active.

Someone from Adobe have clarification?

Thanks,

Hmm...

So this would mean you can have as many users as you want on one box
for free, or you can have a generally unused failover box and a limit
of 100 users for 6k.

I'm not getting the value proposition.

Sounds like it.

My employer has over 200 load-balanced web servers, and several dozen db 
servers (all with 2-4 physical CPUs each) and this has just ruled out 
FDS for us.  We'll be rewriting that functionality for ourselves.

We're masters of data aggregation, and if we're not, we soon will be.  :)

RE: [flexcoders] What is the difference between versions of Flex Data Services

2006-06-29 Thread Matt Chotin












Well, youre obviously in an enterprise
which means that you go through a sales process to purchase your software. Ive
never seen a deal for Flex where someone buying for 200 servers actually paid
list. Its usually heavily discounted. So before writing off FDS
Id at least consider talking to us, it may be that theres a deal
to be struck.
