# Enterprise licenses

> Learn about W&B Enterprise licenses, what features they include, and how to obtain and configure them.

An Enterprise license unlocks W\&B features designed for organizations that need enhanced capabilities in areas of security, compliance, or administrative. See the list of [Enterprise features](#enterprise-features).

* **Security**: Enhanced authentication, encryption, and access controls.
* **Compliance**: Audit logging, HIPAA compliance options, and data governance controls.
* **Administration**: User management features like SCIM provisioning, custom roles, and automation capabilities.

This page provides a comprehensive overview of Enterprise licenses, including what features they enable, how to obtain them, and how to configure them for your deployment.

## Deployment options

Enterprise licenses are available for W\&B Dedicated Cloud and Self-Managed deployments.

* [W\&B Dedicated Cloud](/platform/hosting/hosting-options/dedicated-cloud) provides dedicated, isolated infrastructure managed by W\&B, deployed in Google Cloud. Dedicated Cloud deployments automatically include an Enterprise license. No additional configuration is required, and all Enterprise features are available immediately upon provisioning.
* [W\&B Self-Managed](/platform/hosting/hosting-options/self-managed) is deployed on your own infrastructure, providing full control over your deployment and data. Air-gapped deployments are supported. Without an Enterprise license, [Enterprise features](#enterprise-features) are unavailable.

## Obtain an Enterprise license

This section explains how to obtain an Enterprise license. Based on your use case, select a tab to continue.

## Configure an Enterprise license

<Info>This section is relevant only for W\&B Self-Managed.</Info>

After you [obtain an Enterprise license](#obtain-an-enterprise-license), you can configure it programmatically or you can configure it in the W\&B App after deployment. Select a tab for instructions.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Kubernetes Operator">
    1. Update your `operator.yaml` (the `WeightsAndBiases` custom resource) to set the license:
       ```yaml theme={null}
       spec:
         values:
           global:
             license: "YOUR_LICENSE_KEY_HERE"
       ```

    2. Apply the updated configuration:
       ```bash theme={null}
       kubectl apply -f operator.yaml
       ```
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Terraform">
    1. Update your Terraform variables:
       ```hcl theme={null}
       variable "license" {
         default = "YOUR_LICENSE_KEY_HERE"
       }
       ```

    2. Apply the Terraform configuration:
       ```bash theme={null}
       terraform apply -var="license=$LICENSE_KEY"
       ```
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="W&B App">
    For existing deployments without environment variable configuration:

    1. Log in as an admin user
    2. Navigate to **System Settings**
    3. Find the **License** section
    4. Enter your new license key
    5. Save the changes
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Docker">
    <Warning>Deploying W\&B on Docker is deprecated. W\&B strongly encourages migrating to a [Kubernetes Operator]() deployment managed by Helm or Terraform. Refer to [Reference architecture](/platform/hosting/self-managed/ref-arch.mdx) or contact [Support](mailto:support@wandb.ai) for guidance.</Warning>
    Set the license key as an environment variable:

    ```bash theme={null}
    docker run -d \
      -e LICENSE="YOUR_LICENSE_KEY_HERE" \
      -e OTHER_ENV_VARS \
      wandb/local
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

Next, [verify your Enterprise license](#verify-or-update-an-enterprise-license).

## Verify and manage an Enterprise license

As an instance or organization admin, follow these steps to verify and manage your Enterprise license:

1. In the W\&B App, click your user profile icon in the top right, then click **System Console**.
2. Go to the **License** tab. A dashboard summarizes the license's entitlements, expiration, and usage over time. If you see an error, see [Common issues](#common-issues).
3. For detailed information about the license and its entitlements, click **View license online**.

   From this page, you can also order a new trial or production license. At the top of the page, click **New license order** and submit the form.
4. To renew an expired license or to update the license key, click **Update License**.

   <Tip>
     To ensure uninterrupted service W\&B contacts you:

     * 30 days before the license expires
     * When the license has expired
   </Tip>
