I've noticed the release notes for 6.3 describe the new SQL API as a feature of the x-pack.

This is pretty good news for us, I am just wondering if this will be included in the basic license or only Gold/Platinum?

At this point in time it we haven't made an announcement about which SQL features will be included in which licensing tiers, but there are some hints and rough ideas in this presentation from Elastic{ON}: [https://www.elastic.co/elasticon/conf/2018/sf/elasticsearch-sql](https://www.elastic.co/elasticon/conf/2018/sf/elasticsearch-sql)
