Floating licenses are "pooled" licenses that can be shared across a group of users. They are
most often deployed when an organization has a group of users that will only consume a license
for a minority of their working hours. The licenses are returned back into the license pool as
soon as they are released. Other users can then immediately reuse them.
Note: A user who runs
two different distributions of the application (for example Standalone and Eclipse Plugin)
at the same time on the same computer, consumes a single license.
