What is the limit of workers I can have using Parallel computing toolbox?

I am having parallel computing toolbox which has limit of 32 workers. Do I need some special license if I want to use more than 32 workers on a cluster? What is the upper limit of workers in Matlab after having all the required licenses?

Thanks!

As of R2014a, you can open up to 512 workers on a single computer with Parallel Computing Toolbox installed.

If you would like to run on a cluster or cloud environment, you will need MATLAB Distributed Computing Server (MDCS) installed on the cluster. You can purchase an MDCS license for as many workers as you need.
