LICENSING
Dassault Systèmes Licensing Server (DSLS)
DSLS is a brand new licensing system now available for
Whittle maintained users*
. There are three main mechanisms
in which a user can now obtain a license for Whittle:
• A
Soft lock system - No physical dongle or sentinel is needed
• A
Network system – greater flexibility with License
Management
• A
Managed system – license server is managed by Dassault
Systèmes on our network
Some of the advantages of using the new system are as
follows:
General
• Users can be up and running quicker – no need to wait for
dongle shipment
IN GEOVIA WHITTLE™ 2022
WHAT’S NEW
• No issue of downtime due to lost or damaged dongles
• Easily select licenses, choose from a list of available licenses,
• Network - Greater flexibility with license management/
ability to take licenses offline for up to 30 days (check-in /
check-out)
Managed DSLS
A highly available license server managed by Dassault
Systèmes which is not installed on client’s premises and
allows users to obtain their license keys.
• Reduced capital costs as no need to purchase additional
hardware to run license server,
• Reduced operating costs as the service is managed by
Dassault Systèmes,
• Increased flexibility for license access:
• Small organizations that need the flexibility of server
licensing but do not have corporate networks to host/
manage this. That is, no need for a managed network
with VPN access.
• Work From Home (WFH) – as companies shift from
temporary WFH to more permeant WFH – Managed
DSLS will enable better license utilization and flexible
assignment across team members
• Allows offline licensing (check-out/in) for periods up to
30 days renewable.
