Applying a license

Warning

Customers who didn't launch via the Data Productivity Cloud: The below information is outdated.

It is highly recommended that all customers who launched their Matillion ETL instance prior to the Data Productivity Cloud migrate to a new instance at their earliest convenience.

Standard versions of Matillion ETL obtained from the marketplace do not require a license key. A summary of the built-in limits, which are based upon your instance size, is shown in the license dialog.

To change these built-in limits, you need to apply a license. Contact sales@matillion.com if you wish to change these limits without changing your current AMI. For example, if you have opted for annual AWS fees for the instance but need to define additional environments or add additional concurrent users. If you are paying hourly, you can also reboot the instance with a larger instance size to obtain larger limits.

If you apply a license, when that license expires you will revert to the built-in limits, and the application will continue to function.

Note

After applying a license, you need to restart your Matillion ETL instance to gain access to all expected features.

BYOL (Bring Your Own License)

BYOL versions of Matillion ETL obtained from online marketplaces have no built-in limits. A license key is required immediately before the software can be used.

Once you have applied a license in the License dialog, the limits it provides are shown on the left of the dialog. When that license key expires, you will be required to provide a new license key and the application will not function until you do so.

Contact sales@matillion.com to obtain license keys.
