Hello 

Regarding licensing for simultaneous connections.

How is a connection defined? If I have a client that uses WebSockets and HTTP, would that be considered as one connection to a client? Or is connections port-based?  


Kind regards
Janus Knudsen

Hi Janus

A connection is a full duplex (persistent) connection. The HTTP support in XSockets does not count requests as connections. The websockets (and other connections being persistent) counts as a "connection" in the license.

Ok, so one or more controllers on the same port is considered as one connection? Whereas one controller on 2 different ports count as 2 connections?

Yes, a socket is a connection. Then if you are multiplexing over n controller in that single connection that is still just one connections.
Controllers are just instances of business logic.

Each handshake being done will be a connections (if successful).
