Open source users warn adoption of copyleft licence could make use of Elasticsearch, Kibana a business risk

Updated Elastic, whose products include Elasticsearch and Kibana, has adopted a new licence called SSPL (Server Side Public License), as used by MongoDB. The aim is to restrict cloud service providers from offering our software as a service, but others warn this could make the products risky to use unless a paid-for licence is adopted.
ElasticSearch is a database manager designed for enterprise search, and Kibana a data visualisation tool. Both are open source; but late last week Elastic’s co-founder and CEO Shay Banon said in a post: “We are moving our Apache 2.0-licensed source code in Elasticsearch and Kibana to be dual licensed under Server Side Public License (SSPL) and the Elastic License.”
