ReadonlyREST plugin is the most credible, 100% free and Open Source alternative to X-Pack.
This project is developed by one person - for now - as a side project and generate very low income.
This is a security plugin, and for it to continue being secure it needs a lot of attention. This is what constantly needs to be done:

For the ponies.
Well, also. But also because the alternative would be to pay for a basic X-Pack license: many tens of thousands dollars for a handful of nodes.
So, because there's nothing worse than half assed security: either it's done seriously, or it's better to shut it down.
None of these will be possible without contribution. Please help this plugin to keep the permissive license it has and mostly, keep on existing!

This is a security plugin, and for it to continue being secure it needs a lot of attention. This is what constantly needs to be done:
- Fixing vulnerabilities immediately as soon as they are reported
- Loads of automated testing
- Porting code to new versions of Elasticsearch
- Maintaining backwards compatibile builds with the previous 4-5 version
- Supporting you in Github issues
Why to donate?
