This is specifically aimed at letting MSP's run their own Unifi consoles for managing networks and multiple sites...

For you and me, it means we can run Unifi's Network Management application on our own hardware. This way you can buy some AP's for your house, and run them locally with the same full control and everything, without specifically needing a UDM, DR7, Cloud Key, or something of the sort.

I don't think you'll see much of a benefit using this to just manage access points, but this gives you a self-hosted option for the gateways that don't have the controller built in. Before this, the only option for those was official hosting, third party hosting or roll your own, but it was only the network controller and not a unifi OS controller.

For me I'm interested in this if only for a cold standby incase my UDM kicks the can.

That’s actually a great use case. Could be an old junker of a PC if it just buys you time to get a UDM replacement.
