> ...if you provide a way to upload logs and then search them that's Elasticsearch as a service

Yes, and if you let your internal company blogging platform ping a service upon every new post, which then feeds that post into Elastic so blog posts across your company are searchable?

I suspect one way to avoid this would be “buy a commercial license” (or use Amazon’s fork if you’re so minded), but if you’re using Elastic’s open source offerings — I’d be careful about licensing anything under SSPL, whatever your intentions are.



How does making a blog searchable count as offering Elastic search as a service?
