[jira] [Created] (LEGAL-571) [Usergrid] Verify changes in
Elasticsearch Licensing
Michael Russo created LEGAL-571:
-----------------------------------
Summary: [Usergrid] Verify changes in Elasticsearch Licensing
Key: LEGAL-571
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-571
Project: Legal Discuss
Issue Type: Question
Reporter: Michael Russo
Usergrid (usergrid.apache.org/[https://github.com/apache/usergrid)] leverages the Elasticsearch client library for interacting with the Elasticearch. Elasticsearch is a pre-requisite for running Usergrid (much like an app server requiring the use of a database). Usergrid does not embed the Elasticsearch server into its application.
Elasticsearch has been making some licensing changes recently: [https://www.elastic.co/pricing/faq/licensing#summarize-changes]
The licensing changes do not seem to affect the client libraries, but I wanted to consult and verify this. Usergrid source code is currently using the older Elasticsearch v1.7.5 libraries which appear to be unaffected by the licensing changes(1.7 Branch - https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/blob/1.7/LICENSE.txt).
Can someone help confirm that Usergrid's usage of Elasticsearch falls in-line with the correct use of the new Elasticsearch licensing? I realize that if Usergrid upgrades to newer versions of Elasticsearch or uses Elasticsearch in a different way, the license should be re-evaluated. Any other concerns or thoughts?
