SpiceDB Enterprise is a commercially licensed, self-hosted permissions system built on the open-source SpiceDB project (based on Google Zanzibar). It is designed for organizations that require production-grade authorization infrastructure with additional enterprise-level functionality beyond what the open-source community edition provides. Key characteristics: - Self-hosted deployment model, available in any region - Licensed annually via subscription - Targets production environments requiring fine-grained authorization management Enterprise features include: - Least-privilege API access tokens: Enables the creation of rules governing which services can perform specific API operations, such as write/delete relationships or check requests - Audit logging: Generates detailed records of state changes within the permissions system, published to a log sink for debugging and compliance purposes - Security embargo program: AuthZed follows responsible vulnerability disclosure practices, providing customers with advance notice, fixes, and remediation time before vulnerabilities are made public Support options include dedicated enterprise support from AuthZed for self-hosted deployments, as well as community support via Discord for the broader SpiceDB and Google Zanzibar community. The product is positioned as the same version of SpiceDB that AuthZed uses internally for its managed cloud services, made available for customer self-hosted deployments.
