I'm the admin of a server and I need to obtain a MATLAB license. Some details:

Single server
We are using SLURM to balance the workload
There are about 20 users in total
There are about ~5 users that need MATLAB for now. This might be more in the future
Required toolboxes (at least for now): Image Processing, Signal Processing, Optimization

I've read online about different options (e.g. network license, parallel server, individual license vs designated computer license), but I'm still confused as to what should I get for this case.

Hi Pablo,

Based on the information you provided, a network license for MATLAB may be the most suitable option for your scenario. Here are some reasons why:

Network licenses allow multiple users to access the software on a single server, which is ideal for your situation where there are about 20 users in total and only about 5 users need MATLAB at the moment. This means that you can purchase a license that covers the number of concurrent users you need, and then share the license among those users.
Network licenses are managed by a license server, which can be configured to work with your SLURM workload manager. This allows you to easily manage the allocation of licenses to users based on their job requests.
With a network license, you can also control which toolboxes are available to each user based on their needs. You can purchase licenses for the required toolboxes (Image Processing, Signal Processing, and Optimization) and then assign those licenses to specific users or groups of users.

Thanks, Hope it helps.
