    Our subscription model is based on the number of concurrent connected devices. The tiered instance type comes in various sizes.

    Once the server is deployed, the connected devices are limited to the number of connections purchased. If you plan to increase the number of connections within your organization, then you will need to migrate to a new server instance to allow more connections.
