You mean like what AWS did with Elastic?


No. In that case, AWS built and released new Apache licensed, 100% open source extensions for Elasticache to make essential functionality like TLS encryption and authentication available to anyone. It did not fork Elasticsearch, it released a collection of software that works with the OSS core version of Elasticsearch.

Disclosure: I work at AWS on EC2, and sometimes provide my opinion on open source topics to other teams.
