When I start kibana, I got the following exception:
LicenseExpiredException[license expired for feature [shield]]
I checked the document and only found that:
The first time you start up the node, a 30 days trial license will automatically be created which will enable Shield to be fully operational. Within these 30 days, you will be able to replace the trial license with another one that will be provided to you up on purchase.
Isn't shield a free software? Where Could I purchase the license? I can't find it in the document.

After your license is expired, you should be able to register for the basic license to continue to use your Elasticsearch cluster for dev use (e.g. index any data) and take advantage of the Monitoring feature from X-Pack. Using the basic license, the Security feature will be disabled, however.
Update your licenseedit You cannot install a new license before its effective date. License updates take effect immediately and do not require restarting Elasticsearch. You can update your license from Stack Management > License Management or through the update license API.
I contacted ElasticSearch to know how I could get a license for a personal use. I just have a single server, and want a simple security realm (3 users : admin, logstash, kibana).
Well, the good point is that they called me back one hour after the form submission.
But, the bad point is that they have no plan for personal usages, they just have (for now) a single bundle with everything included:
Unfortunately, it fits perfectly for professional usage, because plans are about 1600 $/year/cluster.
I told the support that having no plan for developer was a bad thing, but the only thing she said is "sorry".
So I'm heading toward SearchGuard because it is free.
