HEWLETT PACKARD ENTERPRISE SOFTWARE END USER SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

BY CLICKING A BOX INDICATING LICENSEE'S ACCEPTANCE, BY EXECUTING AN ORDER THAT REFERENCES THIS AGREEMENT, OR BY USING THE SOFTWARE, LICENSEE AGREES TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE PERSON ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF A COMPANY OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY REPRESENTS THAT THEY HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND SUCH ENTITY AND ITS AFFILIATES TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, IN WHICH CASE THE TERM “LICENSEE” SHALL REFER TO SUCH ENTITY AND ITS AFFILIATES.

Scope. This End User Subscription Agreement (“Agreement”) sets forth the exclusive terms and conditions under which Hewlett Packard Enterprise (“Licensor”) grants a limited use license to the end user (“Licensee”) of the Licensor's software (the “Software”) for a specific duration (“Subscription Period”). This Agreement includes supporting material accompanying the software or referenced by Licensor, which may be software license information, additional license authorizations, software specifications, published warranties, supplier terms, open source software licenses, product lists, hardware or software specifications, standard or negotiated service descriptions, data sheets and their supplements, statements of work (SOWs), published warranties, data protection and security addendum, service level agreements, and similar content ("Supporting Material"). Additional license authorizations are at: http://www.hpe.com/software/SWLicensing. “Order” means the accepted order including any Supporting Material which the parties identify as incorporated either by attachment or reference. Any conflicting term or condition, including those that may be embedded in any purchase order, order acknowledgment, invoice or other forms used by the parties, shall be of no force or effect unless agreed to in a writing by the party against which any such term or condition is asserted.

  1. Grant of License. Licensor hereby grants Licensee a nonexclusive, nontransferable license without the right to sublicense, to install and internally use the Software solely in conjunction with Licensee's information technology network and for no other purpose. Licensee must limit access to and use of the Software by only its employees with the need to use the Software for the foregoing purpose (“Authorized Users”).
  2. Subscription Types and Term. Unless otherwise specified in the quotation, the Subscription Period will begin on the date of Order fulfillment to Licensor and will end 1-year, 2-years, 3-years, 4-years, or 5-years from the Order fulfillment date depending on the subscription part number, type, description, and associated subscription term. ALL SUBSCRIPTIONS ARE NON-CANCELLABLE.
    1. Universal Subscription. A Universal Subscription allows the Software to be deployed on any server or virtual machine from any vendor on premise and in the public cloud. The Universal Subscription does not include the right to certain modules which may be sold separately.
    2. Select Subscription. A Select Subscription can only be purchased in conjunction with the specific Select for Licensor hardware offerings. Select Subscriptions can only be deployed on those specific Select for Licensor hardware offerings, either natively or in virtual machines, and in a hybrid cloud cluster that includes those specific Select for Licensor hardware offerings. In addition, no more than 30% of the quantity of Select Subscriptions deployed on those specific Select for Licensor hardware offerings can be deployed in a public cloud as part of Licensee's hybrid cloud cluster. If Licensee needs a hybrid cloud cluster with more than 30% of the quantity of Select Subscriptions deployed on those specific Select for Licensor hardware offerings deployed in a public cloud, Licensee will need to purchase Universal Subscriptions for those licenses greater than this 30% cap. The Select Subscription does not include the right to certain modules which may be sold separately.
  3. The HPE Ezmeral Container Platform SKUs and the HPE Ezmeral Machine Learning Ops SKUs shall provide entitlement to use the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric product (formerly known as MapR Data Platform) up to the number of licensed Cores (as defined below) and terabytes of Storage Capacity (as defined below). As such, the number of Cores and terabytes of Storage Capacity used for the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric deployment and/or an HPE Ezmeral Container Platform deployment cannot exceed the total licensed Cores.
  4. Each license allows the customer to deploy the HPE Ezmeral Container Platform on one Core and 2 terabytes of Storage Capacity. The customer must purchase more licenses if they exceed the allowable amount of Cores or Storage Capacity. As used in this Agreement, Core means a part of a CPU that executes a single stream of compiled instruction code. Each physical processor contains smaller processing units called physical CPU cores. Some processors have two cores, some four, some eight, and so on. Core capacity represents the total number of cores available within a given system. The number of cores is counted as the number of logical cores presented to the product guest OS. For licensing purposes, the number of cores on a given Ezmeral Container Platform host is the number of unique cores available to the kernel in the OS on which the Ezmeral Container Platform software is directly installed, regardless of the number of threads in each core. It equals the product of Core(s) per socket and Socket(s), as shown in the output of the lscpu command. This applies whether the OS is running directly on a bare metal host, or a virtual machine. Hyperthreading in the OS is ignored (i.e, if hyperthreading is enabled in the Ezmeral Container Platform’s OS, causing 8 vCPUs to exist on a 4-core host, that host will only require 4 cores to be licensed). Conversely, if Ezmeral Container Platform software is installed on a virtual machine on an overprovisioned hypervisor, and the guest OS reports more cores than physically exist on the underlying bare metal host, each of those cores must still be licensed. Storage Capacity means the total storage capacity (HDD & SSD) allocated to and managed by HPE Products, measured in Terabytes (TB) of raw capacity. Includes space for data, data replication, erasure coding, snapshots, metadata, logs and other data that is stored in HPE Data Fabric.
  5. Ownership of Software. All right, title, and interest in and to the Software and all modifications and derivatives thereof, including all patent, copyright, trade secret, and other intellectual property rights therein resides and will reside in Licensor and its licensors, as applicable.
