It’s not clear to me how it’s enforced.

Licensing | Cribl Docs

Every Cribl Stream download package ships with a Free license that allows for processing of up to 1 TB/day. This license requires sending anonymized telemetry metadata to Cribl. (For details, see Telemetry Data below).

  • Free, and Standard licenses enforce data ingestion quotas through limits on the number of Worker Groups and Worker Processes.
  • Enterprise license keys turn off all enforcement.
  • When an Enterprise or Standard license expires, Cribl Stream will attempt to fall back to a trial or free license, or – only if that fails – will block incoming data.
