The Linux Foundation has launched the OpenSearch Software Foundation to support the open-source search software, OpenSearch, previously hosted by AWS.
OpenSearch is a powerful open-source search and analytics engine used for building search, analytics, observability, and vector database applications.
The project has had over 700 million downloads and thousands of contributions from multiple contributors and will now be overseen by The Linux Foundation to foster its growth.
The OpenSearch Software Foundation is supported by premier partner members AWS, Uber Technologies, and SAP SE, and will have a technical steering committee to oversee the project.
