MKL compiled into R / License question

My company offers an analytics environment commercially. I have determined that R compiled with MKL runs quicker than other Blas options. I am aware of and have read the Intel EULA. I understand my current license is as a named user.

1. may  i distribute the version of R I created using the MKL libraries under the license I now possess?

If not, do I have any options?

 

thanks,

Ronald P. Reck

Hi RonaldReck,

Do you the distribute the version of R only to your commercial customers? If yes, then you can do it.

There is no royalty fee for redistributing the Intel MKL library files with your software. Please refer:
