- Crate.io has utilized Elasticsearch code as part of CrateDB from its inception.
- In its original fully open source form, Elasticsearch was truly an inspiration for Crate.io, said Bernd Dorn, CTO at Crate.io.
- Crate.ios commitment to open source and utilization of the Elasticsearch fork will have no impact on existing customer and partner agreements or service levels.
