OpenSearch: The Open, Transparent Future of Search

Rejected

Session Description

Search is at the heart of so many things we build from apps to big data platforms. For years, many of us relied on Elasticsearch to power that search. But as things changed, one thing became clear: openness can’t just be a label; it has to be a commitment.

That’s where OpenSearch comes in. Born from a need for real openness and community-driven development, OpenSearch has grown into a powerful, truly open alternative for search and analytics.

In this talk, we’ll explore what makes OpenSearch different, how the community keeps it transparent and evolving, and why choosing OpenSearch means choosing freedom and trust for the long run. Whether you’re a developer, an architect, or just curious about open source, you’ll leave with a clear understanding of why OpenSearch is shaping the future of search and how you can be part of it.

Let’s keep search open, together.

Key Takeaways

  1. Understand why OpenSearch was created and how it’s different from Elasticsearch

  2. See how true openness builds trust, flexibility, and innovation in search

  3. Learn how the OpenSearch community drives new features and keeps things transparent.

  4. Discover ways to contribute and grow with the OpenSearch community.

Need some insights. If the proposer could have written a blog first, IMO, i would have appreciated it.

+1, need more references and the proposer's background. This only makes sense if the proposer is involved in some capacity with the project. (maintainer etc.)

Reviewer #2
Rejected

The talk doesnt seem to be of enough depth to be considered for the conference. Some detailed insights into opensearch, technical highlights would serve a bigger purpose. A project like OpenSearch doesnt need an introductory talk.

Reviewer #3
Rejected

The reviewers felt that the talk was too introductory and lacked the technical depth required for the conference. Additionally, there were concerns that the proposal did not highlight your direct involvement with the OpenSearch project as a contributor or maintainer, which is a key criterion for our talks.
