This is going to backfire for Amazon. They are in their good right to fork the Elastic repositories, because the products are Open Source, however, if they want to keep up with new features, they’ll need to constantly rebase against the original repository or have a developing team to only focus on applying changes to their own version of Elasticsearch and Kibana. Their customers might want the Elasticsearch experience and seek documentation on Elasticsearch and not “Amazonsearch”.
