Transition and Trade-Up (TTU) with Hybrid Rights 编辑

Transition and Trade-Up

• Transition is when you move your current on-premises licenses to the cloud version of the same product or edition. For example, you move from Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Advanced on-premises to Citrix DaaS Advanced Plus.

• Trade Up is when you exchange your current on-premises licenses or cloud subscriptions to a new product or a higher-level product edition. For example, you move from Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Advanced on-premises to Citrix DaaS.

• Transition and Trade-Up (TTU) is a combination of both Transition and Trade-up where you move your current on-premises licenses to the cloud and exchange these licenses for a higher-level product edition. For example, you move from Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Advanced on-premises to Citrix DaaS Premium Plus.

An on-premises customer can move their existing deployments of eligible Citrix products to Citrix Cloud services through the Transition and Trade-Up (TTU). TTU subscriptions are co-termed with Hybrid Rights for easy transition process. Hybrid-Rights provide time to gradually move on-premises deployments to Cloud while accessing both on-premises and Cloud environments during such period.

Transition and Trade-Up terms and limitations

• You must have a minimum of 25 licenses in your account.

Hybrid Rights

Hybrid Rights are term-based on-premises subscription licenses. These licenses are provided in addition to the cloud service subscription when an on-premises customer transitions or trades up from an on-premises license to a cloud service subscription. Citrix rescinds your on-premises perpetual licenses and replaces them with term-based on-premises licenses corresponding to the product, edition, and license model of the cloud service and for the duration defined under the applicable Cloud and/or Hybrid Rights SKUs. Hybrid Rights subscriptions provide access to both your on-premises and Cloud resources at the same time. Only those users or devices covered by your Citrix Cloud subscription may use the Hybrid Rights on-premises term licenses to connect to the Citrix Cloud Services.

For example, if you have Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Advanced (CCU) on-premises licenses and you trade up to Citrix DaaS Premium (User/Device) you get on-premises Hybrid Rights entitlements (User/Device) along with the subscription licenses. Hybrid Rights are used to operate your on-premises deployment for the term of your subscription or shorter duration as defined by the relevant SKU.

Rescinded licenses must be deleted from License Servers. For more information, see Deleting license files. With Hybrid Rights, you can transition to Cloud gradually while running your on-premises deployment in parallel, without losing out on your on-premises infrastructure.

Unless otherwise defined by the relevant SKU, Hybrid Rights are co-termed with the Citrix Cloud subscriptions purchased in the corresponding Transition and Trade-Up transaction. Citrix Cloud services deployments operate on cloud-based infrastructure. If you use on-premises deployments beyond the initial term of Transition and Trade-Up subscriptions, additional Hybrid Rights add-on licenses must be purchased to continue using those on-premises deployments.

Hybrid Rights add-on

You can purchase the available Hybrid Rights add-on to expand your deployments, add new users, or extend Hybrid Rights subscription terms if your migration to the Cloud is not completed.

Hybrid Right add-ons are not required for new users deployed on Citrix Cloud. However, Hybrid Rights add-ons are required for new users if the customer wants to initially deploy the new users on on-premises before moving them to Citrix Cloud.

If you buy Hybrid Rights add-ons for new users, you must separately buy new corresponding Cloud subscriptions for these new users. The Hybrid Rights add-on licenses for new users cover only the on-premises licensing.

Note:

Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops do not support mixed editions in a single site but do support mixed products and models. For more information, see Multi-type licensing.
