Can kibana and logstash enjoy platinum license

Hello,

I have been told that my company had purchased ELASTIC STACK platinum license for 9 nodes.
In these 9 nodes, 3 will be used for dedicated master nodes and 6 will be data nodes.

However, would kibana and logstash on another node enjoy the platinum license too?

Do i need additonal 2 more license if i were to only configure kibana as a coordinating node?

Yes, only Elasticsearch nodes count against the license.

Thank you.

Another question:
Do i need additional license if i were to install elasticsearch on kibana nodes as a coordinating node?

As far as I know dedicated coordinating node do not count against the licensed number of nodes, but it would be better to get someone from Elastic to confirm this.

The following node types do NOT count against the contract:

-Dedicated Client/Coordinating nodes
-Dedicated Ingest nodes
-Kibana
-Logstash
-Beats

This was replied from elastic and I thought that I should share this with everyone.
