Elasticsearch, Kibana, Elastic Cloud 8.3: Search & replicate across any cluster
Blog post from Elastic
Elasticsearch, Kibana, and Elastic Cloud 8.3 introduce significant enhancements in cross-cluster search (CCS) and cross-cluster replication (CCR), enabling seamless data search and replication across different environments, such as on-premises and cloud. This supports hybrid cloud setups by allowing sensitive data to remain on-prem while integrating with Elastic Cloud. The update also introduces searchable snapshots as archives, removing the need for old clusters and ensuring data accessibility without end-of-life concerns. Kibana 8.3 enhances troubleshooting with alerting in Discover, user-friendly dashboard filters, and machine learning integration for anomaly detection, streamlining data analysis and root cause identification. The release also features hardware profile migration, allowing Elastic Cloud users to optimize performance and cost by easily switching hardware types without downtime. These updates aim to enhance data management, analysis, and cloud migration efforts, with a focus on usability and efficiency across the Elastic Stack ecosystem.
