How is software licensed in the cloud?

Question

Network administration

Good afternoon.
Can you please tell me who knows how software is licensed in the cloud?
If I have 10 copies of the software in the cloud, do I need to purchase 10 licenses, or is one copy of the software and one license enough (each one will just run the same program with a different personal process)?
Thank you.

Answer 1

It all depends on the type of license, you must read!

This does not depend on the cloud or not the cloud, but depends on the conditions under which the licenses are sold by the seller and the question should be addressed to him, for example, you can not pay for the gpl license.

Answer 3

Tell me what software you are talking about. Here it is necessary to speak in detail.
For example, SQL Server Web is licensed per core, while Microsoft Office is licensed per server...
