Announcing the Free Flex Enterrprise Services License

Along with announcing Flex 2 Beta 1 and the free Flex Framework SDK, we also announced some changes to pricing for Flex Enterprise Services. When it ships, Flex Enterprise Services 2 will be free of charge for use with a limited number of concurrent users on a single, non-clustered server. This is huge news and we hope will make FES more widely available for many users.

Note that CNet, in addition to the Flex Builder pricing error that I posted about previously, was also in error with regards to pricing for Flex Enterprise Services, which they asserted would essentially be the same. Aral pointed this out in a comment to my previous posting

The only price that we announced for FES is the free one that I just mentioned. We did also announce that there would be additional commercial license options for Flex Enterprise Services, including on a per CPU, per project, and per enterprise basis. However, we have not yet announced pricing details on any of the Flex 2 product. Those will be announced closer to ship.
