Abstract:
A method, system, and computer-readable storage media for licensing an application using multiple forms of licensing are provided herein. The method includes providing a first form of a license to a first computing device via a licensing service and providing a second form of the license to a second computing device via the licensing service. The method also includes determining a first state of the first form of the license and a second state of the second form of the license, synchronizing the first state and the second state to form a combined license state, and adjusting conditions of the license based on the combined license state.
