I have a hard time believing that Amazon's motives are pure. Companies that develop open source software have an incredibly hard time with profitability -- it is no surprise that elastic wants to reduce their own workload by maintaining a single repo for open source and source available code. The "land mines" are cordoned off in one directory. Hard to miss that.

For me the real frustration is Elastic's close tying of client features to server versions, making it impossible e.g. to buy the latest version of Kibana from Elastic and run it against a server managed by Amazon.
