Oh, I though he/she is talking about Amazon Search service(part of amazon cloud). I think it is the same or similar name.

Are you joking? It's free and open-source software:
https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch

Some of my colleagues at Bielefeld University Library's LibTec department are using it with LibreCat <http://librecat.org/> to power our university's central publication data service PUB <http://pub.uni-bielefeld.de/>. They seem to be happy with it. In other projects, we stick to SOLR or even pure old Lucence.
What are you looking to use ES for?

Cheers,
Christian
