what would be the next move from Amazon? Open distro for Kafka, MongoDB and Redis, and all other successful opensource tools? Just don't know where Amazon is going with this approach of re-packaging existing opensource tools and calling it their opensource contribution.

Amazon is rewriting the proprietary enterprise features of ES from scratch and giving them away for free. Also, their MongoDB "distro" is just "Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility)". That's not going to be open source, because it took a lot of work to basically rewrite most of Mongo.
