Hello team. I am using temporal, which uses Elasticsearch as a backend index storage. The data over Elastic search is never directly provided to customers but only through Temporal APIs. Also, ES is never exposed to anyone and no one directly accesses it at all(even from UI).
We are in evaluation stage and wanted to understand if this is a valid use case without violating ES licensing?
It's true that you can freely use all the Basic-licensed features yourself and within your company, but you were asking about using some Basic-licensed features in a "product", and I think the answer there is a bit more complicated since it depends on the nature of that product. Some kinds of product are covered by the license you already hold, but others are not. The license includes instructions on this subject:
If You have any question as to whether a specific SaaS Offering constitutes a Prohibited SaaS Offering, or are interested in obtaining Elastic's permission to engage in commercial or non-commercial distribution of the Elastic Software, please contact elastic_license@elastic.co.
If in doubt, send a message to that address.
