Aryn is a founding member of the new OpenSearch Software Foundation



Yes - it’s true! The OpenSearch project is now part of the Linux Foundation, and the Aryn team is proud to be a founding member on the governing board of the new OpenSearch Software Foundation. Hosted by the Linux Foundation, the OpenSearch Software Foundation will work with community maintainers and developers, as well as other founding member organizations, to support the continued growth of OpenSearch. The Aryn team thanks AWS for its stewardship of the project to-date, and we’re excited for its continued success and next stages of growth.


OpenSearch is a popular target vector database and hybrid search engine for Sycamore, Aryn’s document ETL engine. And it’s not a surprise - OpenSearch is scalable, performant, and secure, making it a go-to choice from large enterprises to developers hacking up a demo.


Aryn is a member on OpenSearch’s Technical Steering Committee (TFC), helping guide higher-level technical decisions and strategy for the project. We see many customers across a variety of industries building retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and semantic search applications with OpenSearch, and using Aryn’s technology to process their unstructured data and provide high-quality input into these apps.


We believe in a open source solution for search in the GenAI age, and the Aryn team contributed OpenSearch’s RAG and conversation memory feature sets in 2023. In fact, two members of the Aryn team are committers on OpenSearch, and they are guiding the project to help customers navigate technology choices at the intersection of LLMs and search.


Open source software is a fantastic way to delight customers and build software that people actually want and use. And, it’s not truly open until it’s in the hands of the community. We are thrilled to have played a leading role in the creation of the OpenSearch Software Foundation, and we’re excited to continue working closely with the rest of the governing board and the developers committing code to and using OpenSearch. And, we will keep making sure that Sycamore, our open source ETL technology, remains the highest-quality way to prepare unstructured data for RAG and LLM-enabled applications built on OpenSearch.
