Elastic and Amazon Reach Agreement on Trademark Infringement Lawsuit

By Ferraiuoli LLC

Elastic, the company behind Elasticsearch and the Elastic Stack, announced it has resolved its dispute with Amazon in the trademark infringement lawsuit related to the term Elasticsearch. Following this resolution, Amazon has begun removing the term Elasticsearch from various pages on its website as well as from its service names and related project names.

Elastic initiated a lawsuit against Amazon for trademark infringement, because their use of Elasticsearch in their service name and related project names was creating confusion in the market. Earlier this year, Elastic changed the license of Elasticsearch and Kibana as another important step to help provide clarity to Elastic’s community and customers.

“Today, thanks to all of our actions, we are pleased to announce that Elastic and Amazon have reached a mutually-agreeable resolution of the trademark infringement lawsuit. We view this as a significant step in removing the confusion in the marketplace because there is only one Elasticsearch, and it’s only from Elastic,” said Shay Banon, founder, and Chief Technology Officer, Elastic.
