Elastic 8.13 has been officially released, featuring significant new components such as the general availability of Amazon Bedrock support within the Elastic AI Assistant for Observability, new vector search configurations, and a new integration filter plugin for Logstash. The release enhances Elastic Search with modern search experiences, introduces AI Assistant improvements in Elastic Observability, and offers upgrades in Elastic Security for detecting and responding to cloud-scale threats. Built on the Elasticsearch Platform, this update includes performance improvements across core components like Kibana and Apache Lucene 9.10, and extends Elastic Agent support for Kafka.
