This talk is sponsored by OpenSearch. In July of 2021, AWS launched the OpenSearch Project, an Apache 2.0 licensed fork derived from Elasticsearch 7.10.2 & Kibana 7.10.2. The OpenSearch Project is a community-driven, open source search and analytics suite. It consists of a search engine daemon, OpenSearch, and a visualization and user interface, OpenSearch Dashboards. OpenSearch enables people to ingest, secure, search, aggregate, view, and analyze data. Our goal is to build great software together with a strong and vibrant community. In this talk we’ll cover what we’ve launched so far, what’s coming in the future, and the challenges of stewarding an open-source project while also being associated with a large corporation.
