Licensing

You must have a valid license to use Fivetran HVR for data replication. The license includes details such as the issue and expiry dates, the source/target location types that can be used for replication.

Fivetran uses a consumption-based licensing model for HVR, available through the Business Critical plan. The license is automatically supplied to the HVR Hub System as part of this model.

We've deprecated the Private Deployment pricing plan and Usage-based Subscription licensing model as of March 1, 2025. HVR accounts on the Private Deployment plan must transition to the Business Critical or other available plans upon contract renewal. See Pricing Plan Updates for more information.

Consumption-based

Since v6.1.0/3
In this licensing model, you must register the HVR Hub System with the Fivetran server to acquire a license.

The license is valid for 7 days. It is automatically renewed daily, with the issue and expiry dates incremented by one day each time. For example, if you registered on March 10th, the license issue and expiry dates would be March 10th and March 17th, respectively. On March 11th, the license would be auto-renewed, resulting in the issue date updated to March 11th, and the expiry date updated to March 18th.

To register the HVR Hub System with the Fivetran server, you must have access to fivetran.com (35.236.237.87) from your web browser.

To register a newly installed HVR Hub System with the Fivetran server, use one of the following methods:

For browser-based setup, see Setting up HVR Hub from Browser.
For CLI-based setup, see Setting up HVR Hub from CLI.

To register an existing HVR Hub System with the Fivetran server, use one of the following methods:

In the HVR UI, navigate to System ▶ Licensing.
In the CLI, use the hvrlicense command.
