I'm excited about the official Docker images now being available (again?) in an OSS flavor without X-Pack. Quote from https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.0/... :

> The images are available in three different configurations or "flavors". The basic flavor, which is the default, ships with X-Pack Basic features pre-installed and automatically activated with a free licence. The platinum flavor features all X-Pack functionally under a 30-day trial licence. The oss flavor does not include X-Pack, and contains only open-source Elasticsearch.




The pre-installed X-Pack basic license sounds great as well: this at least allows one to use features like monitoring, dev tools and the upgrade assistant out of the box, without the 30-day trial kicking in as was the case for the 5.x Docker images.
