    Overview

    The Elasticsearch Platform  combines world-class search with agentic AI to address your search, observability, and security challenges.

    Elasticsearch's vector database  enables developers to deliver high precision semantic search and scalable AI experiences faster at lower costs. Elastic ensures peak performance even as customers scale across thousands of customers and petabytes of data, while consumption-based pricing and resource optimization tools help keep overall costs low.

    Elasticsearch is the most complete data platform for context engineering and AI - the most deeply integrated open stack combining a scalable distributed data store, vector database, hybrid search, Jina AI models, and an agent builder. It simplifies building best-in-class search, AI, and agentic applications that deliver trusted answers at scale, regardless of where data resides. Built for production, Elasticsearch scales predictably with near real-time performance and cost efficiency on-prem or in the cloud, powering even the most demanding workloads.

    Elastic Observability  - SRE teams shouldn't have to choose between metrics coverage and cost control. Elasticsearch, the best-in-class for logs, is now best-in-class for metrics, too - with a single backend and a single query language. Native Prometheus and PromQL support means existing queries, dashboards, and alert rules work without modification. Elastic delivers more metrics, longer retention, lower cost - no retraining budget, no surprise bill at the end of the month.

    Elastic is the agentic security operations platform  built to secure, not to tax. A platform where autonomous agents handle the full lifecycle from ingestion through response, and your analysts handle judgment, verification and approval. When your adversary moves at machine speed, every vendor-imposed barrier is a gap the adversary exploits. Elastic removes them all. No taxes on your time, wallet, trust, or attention.

    Take advantage of Elastic Cloud Serverless  - the fastest way to start and scale security, observability, and search solutions without managing infrastructure. Built on the industry-first Search AI Lake architecture, it combines vast storage, compute, low-latency querying, and advanced AI capabilities to deliver uncompromising speed and scale. Users can choose from Elastic Cloud Hosted and Elastic Cloud Serverless during deployment. Try the new Serverless calculator  for price estimates.

    Dimensions summary

    This listing uses one pricing dimension: the Elastic Consumption Unit (ECU). You pay based on usage rather than a fixed subscription or seat count. The service tracks the resources and features you actually consume and converts them into ECUs. As your search, observability, and security workloads grow, your ECU usage rises, so your cost scales with demand. You can start and scale in minutes, then draw the charges against your existing AWS spend through one consolidated bill. There are no long-term commitments; you pay only for what you use.

    Top-of-mind questions for buyers

    An Elastic Consumption Unit measures the resources and features you actually use. It converts compute, storage, and platform capabilities into a single billing metric. You are not charged per user or per seat. Instead, your usage across search, observability, and security workloads is tracked and metered as consumption units.
    The service scales resources up and down based on your search and indexing load. When your workload grows, your consumption unit usage rises and your bill increases. When load drops, usage falls and cost decreases. You pay only for what you consume, with no fixed minimum tied to a set capacity.
    Search, observability, and security workloads all consume units. Data volume and query activity are the main drivers. Storing more data and running heavier search or indexing loads increases consumption. Data tiers and searchable snapshots let cold data stay affordable, which can lower the units used for infrequently accessed data.

    What do you like best about the product?
    It helps us in very ease way It doesn't just search text; it can aggregate complex log data, metrics, and security events in real time to create live visual dashboards in Kibana.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    It is a massive resource hog. It relies heavily on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) heap space and file system cache, requiring substantial RAM and CPU to run efficiently, which quickly drives up infrastructure costs.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    By moving heavy search traffic and messy text queries out of PostgreSQL or MongoDB and into Elasticsearch, you keep your main database fast and lightweight.
