We just want to link with MKL libs using Visual Studio: how many licences do we need?

My team would like to link MKL libs into our dll that we redistribute (over an in-house grid/cluster)

We do not want to use Intel Parallel Studio, which appears to be the only way to get MKL.

What are the licensing requirements for us to:

place mkl libs in a shared repository accessible by all our developers,

have each developer be able to link in just the 3 or so libs that we need

redistribute (in-house) the libs via the dll that we build

?

In particular, does each developer workstation that has a copy of the libs need a licence?

Hi Gordon,

Yes, it is based on the number of developers actively use the MKL libs at a given time.

I hope below FAQ page gives you more information.

Thanks,
