Where in the World Is Elasticsearch - July 14, 2014

Last week was awesome! We had some great presentations around the world by our own developers and happy Elasticsearch users like Wildbit.



This week we are very excited to check out some brand new places - hello, Bath and Milan! - and accompany Shay Banon on his way to Tokyo for the 5th Elasticsearch Study Session!
