Description

How Edge-Native Applications Will Impact Workloads


This IDC Perspective discusses "edge native" platforms and applications and analyzes how workloads at the edge will be impacted by them. Edge-native technology has recently become popular as it allows organizations to integrate multicloud and hybrid cloud technology into their edge infrastructure, helping support more locationally remote edge operations while optimizing efficiency and lower latency. Many emerging workloads like text and media analytics and unstructured databases, along with some established ones like content delivery, will see advantages from infrastructure supporting edge-native applications in locations where alternatives like cloud-native technology wouldn't be as helpful due to connectivity and security concerns."Edge-native technologies and platforms are gaining rapidly in popularity as organizations seek to deploy edge infrastructure quickly and securely," says Max Pepper, senior research analyst, IT Infrastructure at IDC. "Determining which workloads will interact the best with this newer technology will be critical for developing a strong edge-native IT strategy, since certain edge use cases like smart video surveillance and autonomous vehicle support are more likely to be impacted than others."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
