When you install the default distribution of ECK, you receive a Basic license. Any Elastic stack application you manage through ECK will also be Basic licensed. Go to https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions to see which features are included in the Basic license for free.

IMPORTANT: ECK is only offered in two licensing tiers: Basic and Enterprise. Similar to the Elastic Stack, customers are able to download and use ECK with a Basic license for free.

For more details, see the link:https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions[Elastic subscriptions].
