Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK) 1.0 is now generally available

Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK) 1.0 has moved from beta to general availability, providing users with a streamlined solution for deploying and managing the Elastic Stack on Kubernetes, a platform that has become the standard for orchestrating container workloads. ECK, built on the Kubernetes Operator pattern, addresses day 2 operational challenges such as scaling, upgrades, and configuration management, allowing users to focus on business requirements and reduce time to value. The release includes features exclusive to Elastic, like APM, Logs, Metrics, SIEM, and machine learning, all under the Basic tier, with more advanced capabilities available through an Enterprise Subscription. ECK supports a variety of Kubernetes platforms, including Google Kubernetes Engine, Red Hat OpenShift, Azure Kubernetes Service, and Amazon Kubernetes Service, and can be deployed with a simple command. The Elastic Stack also enhances Kubernetes observability and security by collecting logs, metrics, and APM data, and integrating with tools like Envoy proxy and CoreDNS. Future developments for ECK will include a dedicated UI, first-party API, and autoscaling, with updates available on their GitHub repository and Discuss forum.
