Turning data overload into clear insights
You’re handling massive amounts of information, system alerts, and performance metrics, all while trying to stay ahead of security threats and make smart decisions.
If you’re still using Elastic’s free version in AWS you’re probably feeling like you’re doing OK as it’s a great introduction to the tools. But it all becomes so much easier if you’re able to invest in an upgrade. That’s because the free version only scratches the surface of what you need to fully and effectively manage your AWS environment.
Elastic is an extremely powerful set of tools when you look at what’s behind their paid versions - Gold, Platinum, and Enterprise. They offer you the control and tools you need to manage your data with ease.
One of the most significant upgrades is machine learning. With anomaly detection and forecasting, you’ll be able to automatically identify issues in your system before they even become noticeable. This allows you to act proactively, which is a far more efficient approach than waiting for a problem to crop up and then scrambling to fix it.
Then there’s Index Lifecycle Management (ILM) and Snapshot Lifecycle Management (SLM). These features automate the management of your data, saving you time and reducing the risk of errors. For example, ILM automatically moves data through different stages of its lifecycle (from hot to warm to cold), so you don’t have to worry about manually managing it. Similarly, SLM automates data backups, ensuring that you never lose critical information, even in the event of a system failure.
With advanced observability tools, you get a comprehensive view of your environment. Whether you're monitoring application performance, tracking system health, or analysing logs, Elastic gives you real-time visibility into what’s going on. This level of control over your data ensures that you can make informed decisions, quickly address problems, and optimise your AWS infrastructure as you scale.
Upgrading to Elastic’s paid tiers gives you the tools to move beyond manual data management. You’ll be able to automate routine tasks, improve data accuracy, and respond to incidents faster.
