IMPLEMENTING ELASTICSEARCH
Implementing Security in Elasticsearch OSS Distribution using Open Distro Security Plugin
What is Open Distro for Elasticsearch?
Open Distro for Elasticsearch, the community-driven, 100% open source distribution of Elasticsearch and Kibana. The distribution also provides few plugins to support different features. This distribution does not include Logstash or any of the Beats components.
Open Distro for Elasticsearch combines the OSS distributions of Elasticsearch and Kibana with a large number of open-source plugins. You can use these plugins individually as well. Open Distro for Elasticsearch is supported by Amazon Web Services.
Why it is in news?
Elastic has done significant changes in its Licensing mechanism recently. They have moved from the Open Source licensing to the dual licensing model of Elastic License and SSPL 1.0, from 7.11 onwards. So for customers who were using the Open Source Version of the ELK stack may need to assess what they can use and what they can not.
