Edition upgrade and downgrade
DataWorks provides Basic Edition, Standard Edition, Professional Edition, and Enterprise Edition. The editions are sorted in ascending order based on the edition level. A higher level of edition provides more abundant features. If the edition that you use does not meet your business requirements, you can upgrade or downgrade the edition based on your business requirements.
Impacts generated by an edition upgrade
You can upgrade your DataWorks service to a more advanced edition to use the features that are provided by the edition. An edition upgrade does not affect the tasks that are running. For information about the fees that are generated by an edition upgrade, see the Edition upgrade and downgrade section of the "Billing of DataWorks editions" topic.
Impacts generated by an edition downgrade
You can downgrade the edition of your DataWorks service. After the edition downgrade, you can no longer use the features that are provided by the original edition. For information about the fee refund that is generated by an edition downgrade, see the Edition upgrade and downgrade section of the "Billing of DataWorks editions" topic.
If your DataWorks Standard Edition, Professional Edition, or Enterprise Edition expires because you do not renew the edition in time, the edition is downgraded to Basic Edition after it expires. The edition downgrade does not affect the running of scheduling tasks that are created in the advanced edition, but you cannot access the DataWorks console. To access the console, you must purchase DataWorks Basic Edition. For more information about how to purchase DataWorks Basic Edition, see the Edition purchase section of the "Billing of DataWorks editions" topic.
After the edition of your DataWorks service is downgraded to Basic Edition upon expiration, you can no longer associate new data sources with DataStudio or disassociate existing data sources from DataStudio. For more information, see Feature downgrades of DataWorks advanced editions upon expiration.
If you still need to use Standard Edition, Professional Edition, or Enterprise Edition after the edition of your DataWorks service is downgraded to Basic Edition upon expiration, you can go to the DataWorks Edition (Subscription) page in the DataWorks console to purchase the desired advanced edition.
Entry point for performing an edition upgrade or downgrade
If the DataWorks edition that you use does not meet your business requirements, you can log on to the DataWorks console and go to the Purchased Resources and Services page to perform an edition upgrade or downgrade based on your business requirements.
