9 | | -### Workspace vs Instance Licenses |
10 | | - |
11 | | -Bytebase uses a two-tier licensing model: |
12 | | - |
13 | | -**Workspace License** |
14 | | - |
15 | | -- Applied to your entire Bytebase workspace |
16 | | -- Unlocks plan-level features (Pro or Enterprise) |
17 | | -- Must be configured first before assigning instance licenses |
18 | | - |
19 | | -**Instance Licenses** |
20 | | - |
21 | | -- Applied to individual database instances to activate instance-specific features |
22 | | -- Allocated from your workspace license quota |
23 | | -- Can be assigned/unassigned as needed to optimize costs |
24 | | - |
25 | | -<Note> |
26 | | - You must first upload a workspace license, then assign the instance license quota to specific instances |
27 | | - that need advanced features. |
28 | | -</Note> |
29 | | - |
30 | | -### License Quota |
31 | | - |
32 | | -A license includes an **instance quota**, which defines: |
33 | | - |
34 | | -- The number of **active database instances** (with assigned instance-level licenses) |
35 | | -- The **total number of instances** allowed under the plan |
36 | | - |
37 | | -### Plan Details |
38 | | - |
39 | | -- Under the **Pro** plan, purchasing **1 to 20 user seats** includes **10 active database instances at no additional cost**. |
40 | | - |
41 | | -- Under the **Enterprise** plan, you must purchase a license with a minimum quota of **10 active instances**. |
42 | | - |
43 | | -### Feature Availability |
44 | | - |
45 | | -- **Enterprise-wide features**, such as [SSO](/administration/sso/overview/) and [Watermark](/security/watermark/) are **not instance-specific** and are available as long as you hold an Enterprise license. |
46 | | - |
47 | | -- **Instance-specific features**, such as [Dynamic Data Masking](/security/data-masking/overview), **require assigning quota** to individual instances to be activated. |
48 | | - For full details, see our [pricing page](https://www.bytebase.com/pricing/). |

50 | | -<Tip> |
51 | | - |
52 | | -To reduce costs, you can license only a subset of your instances (e.g., production instances only). |

| 13 | +<Info> |
| 14 | + **Pro plan is cloud-only.** Self-hosted deployments require an Enterprise license. Existing Pro self-host licenses are grandfathered. Self-hosted Free instances can start a [14-day Enterprise trial](https://www.bytebase.com/contact-us/). |
