In this episode of the ARCHITECHT Show, Elastic founder and CEO Shay Banon talks about the evolution of Elasticsearch—from an open source side project (the first iteration was a recipe-search app for his wife) to popular big data tool to the core of a company worth nearly a billion dollars. He also shares his thoughts and strategies on the growth of Elastic, which, somewhat under the radar, has expanded to include multiple products and employ hundreds of people around the world.
In the news segment, co-hosts Derrick Harris (ARCHITECHT) and Barb Darrow (Fortune) discuss Amazon Web Services joining the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, MongoDB filing for an IPO, and Microsoft buying cloud-HPC specialist Cycle Computing.
