> You wouldn’t even know they are the Elasticsearch company.
When I interviewed there a couple years ago, was told by a leader they are trying to not just be "the Elasticsearch company". (Due to competition from AWS OpenSearch)
I would have left the interview right there. All they did was concede Elasticsearch to AWS, a brand worth 10’s of billions.
Had they executed their Elasticsearch cloud story would have been top notch and then they could put solutions behind it as additional upgrades. Instead they have a confusing story and aren’t a leader in anything they do.
Just a terribly sad outcome for a company that had everything going for them.
You wouldn’t even know they are the Elasticsearch company.
Go to Mongo - immediately shows me a value proposition of building software with MongoDB in their cloud.
The exec leadership at Elastic is very low quality.
