Vertica Community License Restrictions
how does the community edition license work? Can a company use the community edition to analyze data without any license restrictions ? Also..how is the 1Tb caclulated..is it based on raw data ingested ? If we purge data daily..does the purged data get released back to the available pool of data upto 1Tb ?

Overview and Information about licenses.
In reference to your question, as noted,
-Raw data size based and a limit of 3 nodes (HP Vertica Community Edition)
-If your license includes a raw data size allowance, HP Vertica periodically audits the size of your database to ensure it remains compliant with the license agreement. For details of this audit, see Calculating the Database Size. You should also monitor your database size to know when it will approach licensed usage. Monitoring the database size helps you plan to either upgrade your license to allow for continued database growth or delete data from the database so you remain compliant with your license. See Monitoring Database Size for License Compliance for details.
