My apologies if this has already been answered, but  haven't been able to establish beyond doubt.
Is the use of the community edition features still free within the context of a commercial product or are there separate licencing considerations?

Thank you.

Regards,
Morgan

Use of the community edition within the context of a commercial product is free (and Apache 2 licensed), see https://search-guard.com/product/

If you start to use any of this features below you need to obtain a license:

LDAP
Kerberos / SPNEGO
JSON web token authentication
SAML
OpenID / JWKS
Custom authenticators
Document-level security
Field-level security
Audit Logging
Kibana SSO
Kibana multitenancy
Configuration GUI

Compliance related features also need a license:
Read history audit logging
Write history audit logging
Field anonymization
Immutable indices
Event routing
Elasticsearch installation monitoring
Search Guard configuration monitoring

If you want to make 100% sure you only run the Community Edition, you can disable all commercial features in elasticsearch.yml, see here:

Thank You, much appreciated.
