Elastic Cloud Serverless provides the fastest way to start and scale security, observability, and search solutions — without managing infrastructure. Today, we are excited to announce the technical preview of Elastic Cloud Serverless on Microsoft Azure — now available in the EastUS region. Elastic Cloud Serverless provides the fastest way to start and scale security, observability, and search solutions without managing infrastructure.

Transform your organization's observability strategy with open standards and simplified data collection Modern organizations face an unprecedented observability challenge. As systems grow more complex and distributed, traditional monitoring approaches are struggling to keep pace. With data volumes doubling every two years and systems spanning multiple clouds and technologies, organizations need a new approach to maintain visibility into their operations.

I attended ElasticON recently where we spent the day with our NYC Elastic community, talking about the combined value of vector databases using retrieval augmented generation (RAG) to feed large language models (LLMs) for next-level generative AI (GenAI) results. Elastic’s CTO and Founder Shay Banon kicked off his keynote with an important message: GenAI is not magic.

In the digital era, state and local governments are increasingly tasked with managing vast volumes of data while ensuring compliance with stringent regulatory requirements. These regulations, which can vary significantly depending on jurisdiction, often require the retention of data for extended periods — sometimes ranging from one to seven years.

A look at the expanding roles of SREs and the new skills needed: cost management and AI Imagine the CTO walks into your team meeting and drops a bombshell: "We need to cut our cloud costs by 30% this quarter." As the lead SRE, this might cause a strong reaction — isn’t your job about ensuring reliability? When did you become responsible for the company's cloud bill? If you've had a similar experience, you're not alone. The role of site reliability engineers (SREs) is evolving fast.

Like all organizations, Elastic deals with an ever-increasing volume of information and data, making it harder for our teams to keep information up to date and for employees to find answers from relevant resources. As a leading Search AI company, our approach to customer-first starts with customer zero — us. When our employees needed a better way to find the information necessary to do their jobs, we knew we could use our own technology to bring that vision to life.

Announcing the general availability of Elastic Observability on Elastic Cloud Serverless — a fully managed observability solution As organizations scale, an observability solution that can handle the complexity of distributed cloud environments and provide real-time insights often feels like an insurmountable challenge often due to data- and cost-related compromises.

In today’s data-driven world, organizations need to harness the power of real-time monitoring and analysis. Amazon CloudWatch native monitoring service provides a robust platform for tracking metrics, logs, and events from various Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources. However, when you need to extend your monitoring and analytics beyond CloudWatch, integrating CloudWatch with Elastic can be a game-changer.

App Search will be discontinued in 9.0 versions, but Elasticsearch has everything you need to build powerful AI-powered search experiences. Here’s what you need to know. Recent advancements in generative AI are transforming user behavior, inspiring developers to create search experiences that are more dynamic, intuitive, and engaging.
