We have a simple goal: to solve the world's data problems with
products that delight and inspire. Elastic is the leading software
provider for making structured and unstructured data usable in real time
for search, logging, security and analytics use cases. Since its
initial release in 2012, Elastic's products have achieved more than 100
million cumulative downloads. Today thousands of organizations like
Cisco, eBay, Dell, Goldman Sachs, Groupon, HP, Microsoft, Netflix, NY
Times, Uber, Verizon, Yelp, and Wikipedia use the Elastic Stack, X-Pack,
and Elastic Cloud to power critical systems that drive new revenue
opportunities and massive cost savings. Elastic is backed by $104
million in funding from Benchmark Capital, Index Ventures, and NEA; has
headquarters in Amsterdam and Mountain View, California; and has
employees across 30+ countries into one coherent team, while the broader
community spans across over 100 countries.
Kibana is the window into the Elastic Stack
Kibana lets users visualize their Elasticsearch data and
navigate the Elastic Stack, so they can do anything from learning why
they’re getting paged at 2:00 a.m. to understanding the impact rain
might have on their quarterly numbers. Kibana gives users the freedom to
select the way they give shape to their data. And they don’t always
have to know what they’re looking for. With its interactive
visualizations, users start with one question and see where it leads
them. Kibana core ships with the classics: histograms, line graphs, pie
charts, sunbursts, and more. They demonstrate the full aggregation
capabilities of Elasticsearch.
Are you a top Javascript developer who wants to add to Kibana and X-Pack? We want to meet you!
Engineering Philosophy
Engineering a highly complex distributed system that is easy to
operate via elegantly designed APIs is a non-trivial effort. It
requires solid software development skills, and more importantly, a
sharp mind and the ability to think like a user. We also care deeply
about giving you full ownership of what you’re working on. Our company
fundamentally believes great minds achieve greatness when they are set
free and are surrounded and challenged by their peers, which is clearly
visible in our organization. At Elastic, we effectively don’t have a
hierarchy to speak of. We feel that anyone needs to be in the position
to comment on truly anything, regardless of his or her role within the
company.
