New Per Core Licensing Model
Effective with the 2013 version release, BizTalk
Server licensing is moving from a processor-based
model to a Per Core model. This model provides a
more precise measurement of computing power
and a more consistent licensing metric, regardless
of whether your BTS solution is deployed across
on-premise, virtual and/or cloud environments.

model to a Per Core model. This model provides a

and a more consistent licensing metric, regardless
of whether your BTS solution is deployed across

Under the new Per Core licensing model, each
server running BTS 2013 software or any of its
components must be assigned an appropriate
number of BTS 2013 core licenses. The number
of core licenses needed depends on whether
you are licensing the physical server or
individual virtual operating system
environments (OSEs).

of core licenses needed depends on whether
you are licensing the physical server or
individual virtual operating system
environments (OSEs).
To license a physical server, you must license
all the cores in the server, with a minimum of 4
core licenses required for each physical
processor in the server. BTS 2013 core licenses
are sold in packs of two and are priced at ¼
the cost of a BTS 2010 processor-based license.

The actual number of core licenses required
may vary by processor type, and as such, will
depend on the Core Factor assigned to your

Cloud-Optimized Virtualization
Licensing
Licensing
BizTalk Server 2013 offers expanded virtualization
rights, options and benefits to provide greater
flexibility when deploying in virtual environments.
When deploying BTS 2013 in a virtual environment,
you have the choice of licensing either individual
virtual machines (VMs) as needed or to license for
maximum virtualization to support highly
virtualized and private cloud environments.

Individual Virtual Machines
As hardware capacity grows, it becomes more
common for each instance of BTS 2013 to use only
a fraction of a server’s computing power. When
deploying VMs that use just a portion of a physical
server, you can achieve significant savings by
licensing individual VMs. Similar to licensing
physical OSEs, all virtual cores (v-cores) supporting
virtual OSEs (VMs) running BTS 2013 software must
be licensed accordingly.
