Introducing Elastic License v2, simplified and more permissive; SSPL remains an option

When we announced our license change for Elasticsearch and Kibana, moving the Apache 2.0-licensed source code to be dual licensed under both the Elastic License and SSPL, we also mentioned we would work closely with the community on a simplified and more permissive version of the Elastic License. I am happy to share the results with you. The Elastic License is already widely used.

What Does a CTO Do When a 60PB Hadoop Cluster Devours the IT Budget?

In 2019, the CTO of a large global bank realized a problem: Their data continued to grow, costs for their Hadoop cluster rapidly escalated, and these costs started eating into their annual IT budget. Moving off of Hadoop, or “lift-and-shift” was out of the question. They needed a way to cap their cost and growth without impacting their ability to remain market competitive.

How we're making date_histogram aggregations faster than ever in Elasticsearch 7.11

Elasticsearch's date_histogram aggregation is the cornerstone of Kibana's Discover. And the Logs Monitoring UI. I use it all the time to investigate trends in build failures, but when it is slow I get cranky. Four seconds to graph all of the failures of some test over the past six months! I don't have time for that! Who is going to give me my four seconds back?! So I spent the past six months speeding it up. On and off.

InfluxData secures SOC 2 Type II certification for InfluxDB Cloud

SAN FRANCISCO — January 28, 2021 — InfluxData, creator of the time series database InfluxDB, today announced it has achieved Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 Type II compliance for InfluxDB Cloud, the fully managed and serverless time series platform. The certification demonstrates InfluxData’s ability to implement critical security policies and prove compliance over an extended period.

InfluxData is SOC 2 Certified

At InfluxData, we focus on our customers’ productivity — time to awesome, as we call it. Usually this is about product capabilities — InfluxDB’s features, speed, scalability, etc. But for some, your project will grow in size to the point where you need to purchase InfluxDB. And in some cases, you’ll need your compliance and/or security teams to sign off on the purchase.
