    If a user wishes to use FME Server with ESRI products/functionality, please be aware of the following:

     

    • If the end user is using FME Server with ArcGIS, they must use ArcGIS Enterprise (formerly “ArcGIS Server”)

     

    • ArcGIS Desktop and ArcGIS Engine are not for use in “server environments”

     

    • Having ArcGIS Desktop on the same machine as FME server so that FME Server can exploit some functionality (eg GP, python scripts, etc) is not permitted in the Esri license

        When explaining the second point regarding "server environments" to clients, it would be great to have something official from ESRI to refer to, if you have a URL or other document?

        hi @david_r, here is Esri's standard terms: http://www.esri.com/legal/software-license. I hope that is helpful. We cannot speak to legalities or provide legal advice on these terms.
