Blog post from Elastic
Elastic has partnered with Google Cloud to enhance the performance of Elasticsearch on Google's custom Arm64-based Axion Processors, specifically the C4A virtual machines, which provide up to 40% higher indexing throughput compared to previous-generation VMs. This collaboration aims to optimize Elastic Cloud Serverless, facilitating faster deployment and scaling of observability, security, and search solutions with reduced query latency for AI-driven applications. By leveraging Google's Axion processors and Titanium Local SSD storage, Elastic is committed to driving joint AI innovation, particularly for customers developing generative AI applications using Elastic's Search AI Platform. Users can explore Elastic Cloud Serverless and Search AI Lake through a technical preview on Google Cloud, although the availability of features and functionality is at Elastic's discretion.
