How are Licenses Measured?

With VUL licensing, customers apply licenses to each workload they choose to protect. Customers protect each workload with one license from their pool of available licenses. Veeam products are sold in bundles of 10 or more licenses and customers use their licenses for whatever workload they need to protect. One license protects one VM, one server, one cloud VM, one application server, a three-pack of workstations or 250GB of NAS.
