Will Elasticsearch 7.10 allow me to remain under Apache 2.0 license?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

My Firm has built client products using < Elasticsearch 5.0 version.
We are planning for an upgrade.

If I upgrade Elasticsearch to 7.10 version, will I remain under Apache 2.0 license?

Thank you

Hey @truth_is,

Take a look at the FAQ for the licensing change: FAQ on 2021 License Change | Elastic

For 7.10, the source code for features under Basic and Gold+ are licensed under the Elastic License. So, only a subset of the source code for 7.10 is Apache 2.0.

Looking at the LICENSE file for Elasticsearch for the 7.10 branch might also be helpful to you.

Hope this helps.
Brian
