Elastic's partnership with Alibaba Cloud has significantly expanded their user base and community, showcasing Elastic's dedication to forming alliances with trusted cloud infrastructure providers. This collaboration, marked by the receipt of Alibaba Cloud’s Walking Together Award, highlights the integration of Alibaba's self-developed Elasticsearch as part of its Big Data product family, which facilitates ease of access and use for customers in China. Both companies have invested heavily in their partnership, focusing on a commercial offering rather than an open-source one, and aligning their product and engineering teams to enhance the customer experience. The partnership leverages Alibaba Cloud's substantial market presence and community in China, attracting developers and enabling digital transformation through a shared commitment to cloud-native solutions. As Elastic and Alibaba Cloud continue to grow together, they anticipate the launch of new SaaS offerings and an ongoing deepening of their collaborative efforts, underpinned by mutual trust and shared innovation goals.
