I was sort of curious, so I went to see what impact this had on the customer experience at AWS. Searching for 'elasticsearch' in the AWS console services dropdown now yields:
'''
Amazon OpenSearch Service (successor to Amazon Elasticsearch Service)
Run and Scale OpenSearch and Elasticsearch Clusters (successor to Amazon Elasticsea...
'''
This seems like a petty, small win from the Elasticsearch people. I understand AWS has a history of gobbling up OSS and productizing it, and that that's detrimental, but it's hard to see Elastic, Inc as anything but sore that they got their lunch eaten here. Maybe that's justified. But it comes off as incredibly petty.
(disclaimer: i used to work at aws, but not anywhere near the referenced offerings).
