Last year we announced an expanded partnership with Google to bring Elasticsearch Service to even more Google Cloud users. We were also named one of Google Cloud's partners of the year! We've since deepened our partnership, and today we are proud to announce new ways to purchase and discover Elasticsearch Service in the Google Cloud Marketplace. You can now purchase monthly Gold and Platinum subscriptions as well as Standard, Gold, and Platinum annual subscriptions through the marketplace.

We're excited to announce that the Splunk Machine Learning Toolkit (MLTK) version 5.2 is available for download today on Splunkbase! Earlier this month, I discussed how the release of version 5.2 will make machine learning more accessible to more users. Splunk’s MLTK lets our customers apply machine learning to the data they're already capturing in Splunk, develop models, and operationalize these algorithms to glean new insights and make more informed decisions.

The Elastic Cloud console gives you a single place to create and manage your deployments, view billing information, and stay informed about new releases. It provides an easy and intuitive user interface (UI) for common management and administrative tasks. While a management UI is great, many organizations also want an API to automate common tasks and workflows, especially for managing their deployments.

Over the past few weeks, Splunk has created a number of different tools to help bring data to the COVID-19 crisis. These tools, such as a public dashboard, an app on Github, and a Mobile Dashboard can be used to identify locations of outbreaks, find correlations and more.
