I am evaluating confluent schema registry to be ran as a standalone deployment which we will own.

Authorization is (provided through the [Schema Registry Security Plugin](https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/confluent-security-plugins/schema-registry/introduction.html#confluentsecurityplugins-schema-registry-security-plugin)) which is a commercial component of Confluent Platform.

I wanted to know if I can use schema registry with ACL authorization without a commercial license?
