ABSTRACT:
A licensing system provides enhanced flexibility for licensing applications in a network. The licensing system includes a license certificate database which stores all license information. The license certificate database is accessed by providing a request to a license service provider associated with a server. The license service provider generates an executable entity based on the request parameters, which searches the database and, if the appropriate units are available, assembles a license. The license and the application are then transmitted to the requesting client. All aspects of the transaction are also stored in a database organized according to a transaction's relation to a particular license.
