Summary of their licenses.
With big data and increase interest in business intelligence, there seems to be many software out there to suit all your needs. As for OSS licensed, the name Pentaho have been around for a long time. Here is a little note on their licensing.Pentaho Business Analytics Platform 2, Pentaho Reporting Engine and Pentaho Report Designer are licensed as GPL v2.
Pentaho Data Integration or Kettle is license as Apache version 2.0. Details are found at their wiki.
There is an interesting and comforting public post on Kettle license at Pentaho Forum with regards to Pentaho licensing.
Community Edition
Pentaho 7.1 is currently available but there is still the community edition, and my notes on Howto install is available only for the Linux server.The additional known components that enterprise have and community edition doesn't is the self service designer dashboard and interactive reporting. Still searching for comparison of the community edition and other BI tools in the market.
