SDK Pack Registration and Licensing
Go Up to InterBase VAR License Portal
Registering and licensing of apps is a clear and concise process. The InterBase SDK Pack offers customers the ability to test their installation process. With the SDK Pack, the potential VAR can start developing immediately while completing the steps necessary to gain access to the VAR portal.
The process includes:
- The purchase of an “InterBase VAR SDK Pack”.
- Embarcadero creates new account with the status of “Potential VAR”.
- The Partner is given access to Partner Portal where they can view VAR details and reports.
- The new InterBase VAR is introduced to Embarcadero Support by an Embarcadero Sales/Channel Partner.

Updating Your Application for Live Deployments
After the SDK Pack and VAR contact are in place you will be issued with your live deployment licenses. Unlike the SDK pack licenses, there are no time restrictions, but the licenses are identical in all other respects. Simply add the live license into your application deployment at the same location as the SDK license and you are ready to go. There is no need to ship an SDK license with a live license so it can be safely removed at this point if you so wish.
