Itâs also usually lawyers that create these names. I worked on databases for IBM Cloud and they were all called âIBM Cloud Databases for Elasticsearchâ and what have you. Despite it being an offering of the database on IBMâs cloud.
Since Elasticsearch is a brand name, the âhostâ corporation corporation has to present it as a product âforâ the brand name rather than as the brand name itself to avoid implying that they are acting AS Linux or Elasticsearch or whoever is the third party.
