Activate Dataphin

Updated at:

This topic describes how to activate Dataphin so you can start using its features.

Prerequisites

You must have an Alibaba Cloud account that has passed real-name verification. For more information, see Prepare an Alibaba Cloud account.

Limitations

Each Alibaba Cloud account is limited to one Dataphin instance per region.

Permissions

To create a Dataphin instance as a Resource Access Management (RAM) user, the RAM user or the assigned RAM role must have the AliyunDataphinFullAccess and AliyunBSSOrderAccess permissions. For more information about permission policies for RAM users and RAM roles, see Permission Policy Overview.

Purchase

  • Currently, you cannot purchase Dataphin instances with a Finance Cloud account.

  • Dataphin supports auto-renewal to prevent service interruptions due to resource expiration. To enable this feature, select Auto-renewal on Expiration on the purchase page. The auto-renewal period is monthly, and you can cancel it at any time. For more information, see Renewals.

  • After you purchase a Dataphin instance, it typically takes 5 to 10 minutes to provision the service. If provisioning fails, you receive an automatic refund.

  • Dataphin supports only the MaxCompute compute engine. Your selection on the purchase page affects only the initial configuration. You still need to purchase the MaxCompute compute engine separately.

  • You can purchase different value-added modules for different service editions. For more information, see Billing - Fully managed.

Notes

Before you activate Dataphin, review the following notes:

  • We recommend contacting Alibaba Cloud pre-sales consultation to ensure the Dataphin edition meets your needs before purchase. You can proceed with the purchase after confirmation from the pre-sales team.

  • Dataphin does not offer unconditional refunds, so please carefully confirm your selected edition before making a purchase.

    After you purchase Dataphin, if you need a refund due to special circumstances, submit a ticket and contact your account manager. If your request meets the refund conditions (refunds are not provided for non-product-related issues), a refund will be processed, minus any fees for usage.

  • Dataphin supports the Subscription billing model.

  • Only new users can purchase a Dataphin instance. If your Dataphin instance has expired and been stopped, and is within the 14-day retention period, you can only renew it.

Purchase a Dataphin instance

Dataphin offers various editions and features for different business scenarios and data volumes. You can choose from Personal Edition, Agile Development Edition, Basic Development Edition, and Intelligent Development Edition.
