Not an OSI approved open source licence at least.

 

I meant to say before that it seems that AWS are (predictably) forking Elasticsearch: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/opensource/stepping-up-for-a-truly-open-source-elasticsearch/.

 

It’ll be really interesting to see what happens.

Hi all,

 

Have folk heard that Elastic is changing the Elasticsearch licence?

 

Depending on your sources and your beliefs, this may or may not matter, but certainly something to be aware of.
