Meet the Experts: Elastic Team community spotlight

14 Jun 2023

As a vetted community of experts, only the top 2% of applicants qualify to be admitted into Distributed’s Elastic Team Community. This ensures a supportive and knowledgeable environment from which Elastic Teams are built for customers. Elastic Team members span a wide range of skill sets, experience backgrounds, and time zones in order to offer flexibility to enterprise customers. We’re excited to launch a new monthly initiative, Meet the Experts, to introduce Elastic Team members and share their stories.
