Elasticsearch and doubling down on "open" (Interview)
Wed, 11 Apr 2018
Description
Philipp Krenn joined the show to talk with us about Elasticsearch, the problem it solves, where it came from, and where it's at today. We discussed the query language, what it can be compared to, whether or not it's a database replacement or a database complement, Elasticsearch vs Elastic the company. We also talked about the details behind Elastic's plan of "doubling down on open" to open up X-Pack, which is open code paid add-on features to Elasticsearch. We discussed the implications of this on their business model, and what changes will take place at the code and license level on GitHub.
