IBM Aspera offers two licensing options for High-Speed Transfer Server, the main server engine that powers Aspera FASP transfer sessions. The first model licenses each installation by server with a bandwidth cap. The second model allows unlimited installations and bandwidth, and is entitled according to how much data volume (bytes in + out) is sent over a year.
Many customers are changing to this volume entitlement to allow more flexibility in number of servers deployed and overall throughput.
