RE: Active Perl Licensing question

I believe that is correct; you are supposed to use the Business Edition on external facing servers, and an online store would definitely count as an external application.

 

Cheers,

Subject: Active Perl Licensing question

 

Hello All,

 

I was looking today at the differencies between the Community and Business editions. One thing that really came to my attention is the following point:

 

 

For community edition: License to use on non-production and internal servers

 

For Business Edition: License to use on external-facing servers

 

 

I’m trying to fully understand that part. Suppose I have the following setup:

 

1) Dedicated server with iWeb (serving on public IP addresses)

2) Windows Server 2008 R2 as operating system

3) Apache as web server

4) Active Perl Community Edition as my Perl installation

5) A public website (let’s say an online store) which uses CGI/Perl or mod_perl to run, hosted with Apache

 

Would I be effectively breaking the license agreement?

 

 

Best regards,

 

Francisco Zarabozo
