License types#
Packages used for data science are very often associated with open source licenses that specify how the packages can be used. While many licenses allow a broad range of usage, some are more restrictive, especially with respect to production environments. Package Security Manager (On-prem) allows for filtering by license type, which can help organizations govern package availability before license issues can cause production issues.
The following is a list of OSS licenses and links to further details.
