The enterprise license management page now lists newly-created paid licenses. We want to encourage new users of self-hosted CRDB to create Cloud accounts as well so they have access to this page, both to self-manage trial licensing and to have in-product access to paid licenses.

  • Note that paid licenses created after May 15th (TBD) appear in the cloud console enterprise licenses page, accessible to those with org admin permissions
  • Add missing "Evaluation" license type and mention that there are Production/Pre-production/Development sub-types of "Enterprise"
  • Add "create a cloud account/manage licenses" next step to self-hosted installation guides
  • Fix a broken link found on macOS deployment guides
  • Fix invalid future tense in licensing changes announcement

@jhlodin let's say May 31, 2025. In reality, it will probably be a little sooner, but I think that's okay!
