Astra Group and 1C have announced the launch of sales of the specialized operating system "Astra Linux Server 1C" for "1C:Enterprise 8". Key features include built-in protection mechanisms for virtualization tools and DBMS, functionality for controlling removable media and access control systems: discretionary or role-based. The OS supports "kiosk" mode, and it is possible to strictly limit the range of applications and settings available to users.
Customers are offered two licensing options: for physical servers (in this case, the total cost depends on the number of sockets) and for virtual environments. The company emphasized:
It is important to note that "Astra Linux Server 1C" can be purchased separately from licenses for "1C:Enterprise 8", but their availability is a prerequisite for legal use. Updates are provided every 12 months.
