As software deployment models evolve,
they become increasingly complex and harder to monitor.
You've got multiple virtualization and orchestration platforms
across thousands of hosts.
They're running countless virtual machines, containers, pods,
and services across your public and private infrastructure.
And each one might hold the clues that you need
to answer your next question.
Observability with the Elastic Stack allows you to gather all your logs,
metrics, and application trace information behind a single pane of glass.
Customize the default visualizations and dashboards
that ship with most data integrations, craft new visualizations with Lens,
an intuitive way to rapidly gain insight into your Elasticsearch data,
and get creative with Canvas -- making pixel-perfect presentations suitable
for your desktop, boardroom, or operation center.
Sift through all these potential clues and quickly find contributing factors
for problems, identify areas of improvement,
and even gauge your users' experience.
See your entire infrastructure from a bird's-eye view
and look at it from the perspective that makes sense for you,
whether it be by host, cloud view, or through Kubernetes
or container lenses.
Whether you're running monoliths or microservices,
the Elastic Stack's simple pricing model scales with you,
wherever you are on the path to cloud-native.
It's not pricing by host, agent, or ingest but, rather,
by which data you find valuable.
Logs, metrics, and application traces all adhere
to the Elastic Common Schema, so you know exactly
where your observability data comes from, allowing you to filter
and group by hierarchical metadata or even your own fields.
Quickly identify hotspots from memory, CPU, or network traffic,
drill down for historical metrics, then jump over to APM
to see exactly what's going on inside your applications.
These rich integrations also allow you to navigate to related logs,
while the search bar, integral to all aspects of observability
with the Elastic Stack, let's you quickly find exactly
what you're looking for with autocompleting search,
which is vital to today's dynamic infrastructures.
Real-user monitoring allows you to quantify the end-user experience,
because requests aren't complete
just because your servers have the response.
The user's experience may depend on where they sit,
and leveraging geolocation to see where they're coming from allows you
to filter by location or view the bigger geopicture
and put rich, multi-layered map visualizations
alongside your observability data. And leverage Elastic Uptime
to practically identify problem services before your users
even encounter them. Or see how your services interact with service maps,
including a thumbnail view of key interaction metrics.
Integrated machine learning for anomaly detection
and query-based learning take the guesswork out
of issue identification and resolution, notifying you
so you don't miss a thing in the manner that you choose,
whether it be via PagerDuty, Slack, email, or even generic webhooks.
The line between observability and security is vanishing.
So, the Elastic Stack has you covered with SIEM,
another way to slice and dice your data.
With the Elastic Stack, you're not locked in with a SaaS-only solution.
The Elastic Stack provides multiple deployment models allowing you
to run where and how you want to.
You can run your Elastic Stack self-managed, on-prem,
or in the cloud, with direct downloads or orchestrated
by Elastic Cloud Enterprise or with the new Elastic Cloud
for Kubernetes operator.
Or, leverage one of our managed services on Elastic Cloud.
Only Elastic lets you maintain a level of data gravity,
the ability to keep your data close to your workloads
while cross-cluster search and replication let you interrogate
that data where and how you see fit.
Unified observability with the Elastic Stack allows you
to join all facets of observability with one common datastore
to monitor anything and everything, leverage machine learning as problems,
and surface what's important.
With deployment options for all needs, there's a way
to leverage observability with the Elastic Stack
that's right for everyone.
