Prerequisites and Licensing
System requirements
A dedicated server provided by TT running Linux. Specifically, the TT-provided server runs CentOS 7 as required by the TT Core SDK.
Licensing
Running a TT Core SDK application requires two prerequisites:
- First, a user must have a TT Pro license. A user with a TT Pro license can run any number of TT Core SDK applications.
- Second, each client application instance must provide its own application key upon initialization. Refer to Authenticating a TT Core SDK application for details on creating application keys.
