Better feature usage tracking, new cost and usage analysis page, and more

Feature usage tracking for self-service customers. It is now possible for customers to analyze their Elastic Cloud feature usage and choose the subscription level that best fits their needs.

Cost and usage analysis page. To help users better understand their costs, we have introduced a new Usage analysis page under Account & Billing. The Usage analysis page allows you to filter historical data and break down usage by deployment, as well as by product. For annual and overages customers, it also shows how many credits will be applied for the current bill cycle.

Unhide deployment aliases fields from Deployments API. Deployment Alias field alias added to support user-friendly URLs for deployment resources.

Log delivery health status. Callout section lists all observability health issues for a deployment.

Add data tiers to UI. Data tiers and their associated Elasticsearch node.roles are now supported in the UI.

Updated the user menu hover and focus state. Fixes minor visual bugs in the user menu. The buttons were not the full width of their parent, and the focus state was emphazising that issue. In addition, the moon icon had the wrong colour.

Allow the vis_type_table.legacyVisEnabled kibana setting. Adds new datatable setting vis_type_table.legacyVisEnabled to allow list. This setting can be used to switch to the legacy datatable.

Start using Metricbeat for monitoring for 7.6+ clusters.

Any deployment update executed on a monitored 7.6+ deployment will undergo a one-time rolling plan change to transition the deployment to Metricbeat-based monitoring.

Allow Kibana CORS settings on Cloud. Cloud adds Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support for Kibana with the following settings: server.cors.enabled - Set to true to allow cross-origin API calls. Default: false. server.cors.allowCredentials - Set to true to allow browser code to access the response body whenever the request is performed with user credentials.
