Self-managed licenses in License Manager

Self-managed licenses (formerly known as license configurations) are the core of License Manager. Self-managed licenses contain licensing rules based on the terms of your enterprise agreements. The rules that you create determine how Amazon processes commands that consume licenses. While creating self-managed licenses, work closely with your organization's compliance team to review your enterprise agreements.

Amazon Web Services services such as License Manager have service quotas that define the maximum number of resources or operations per Region that are available to your Amazon Web Services account for that service. For example, with License Manager, you can have a maximum of 10 self-managed licenses per resource, with no more than 25 self-managed licenses total in any given Amazon Web Services Region. To find out more about License Manager quotas, see Amazon License Manager Service quotas in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.
