  Is it better than AWS’s implementation?

    And/or cost competitive.

      Looking at a single machine (i3.large, 15GB ram, 470GB SD): Raw EC2 costs: $0.156/hr or $112/month AWS Elasticsearch: $0.25/hr or $180/month Elastic's Elasticsearch: $0.3375/hr or $243/month (price stays about the same for 1, 2 or 3 nodes)

        So if we assume the level of service is not much better, AWS is the more prudent choice, no? So trademark issues aside, AWS does ES better than Elastic?
        • budlightvirus 6y ago
          To me that would depend on whether AWS Elasticsearch is actually profitable at that price point, or whether they are running at a loss to grab market share.

            The quality of the service you get depends on if AWS makes a profit? Also, do you think they make a profit on the bare EC2 instance? If so, why do you think that running a few management scripts that manage ES running on it would add up to more than $0.094/hour?
