I would bet on AWS in this case as they will also likely have the support of anyone who wants to make a hosted service of those products. It will be interesting to see if eventually AWS starts making new APIs that diverge from the Elastic or if they chose to keep the product maintenance mode.

I understand that this is not what you meant, but AWS ES service has a different API than the one in the official Elastic documentation already - mainly that it’s a smaller subset of it. What may seem like a good decision for “aaS” product in general, is a real pain with ES specifically, because of how delicate it is for tuning.
