Elastic connectors

edit

A connector is a type of Elastic integration that syncs data from an original data source to an Elasticsearch index. Connectors enable you to create searchable, read-only replicas of your data sources.

Connectors extract the original files, records, or objects; and transforms them into Elasticsearch documents.

Many connectors are available out-of-the-box on Elastic Cloud. You can also access the source code for these (and additional) connectors, and run them on your own infrastructure.

  • Native connectors are available directly within your Elastic Cloud deployment.
  • Connector clients are self-managed on your own infrastructure.

edit

Native connectors are available directly within your Elastic Cloud deployment, as a managed service. No additional infrastructure is required.

See Native connectors (managed service) for details on how to configure and use native connectors.

Connector clients (self-managed)

edit

Connector clients enable you to run connectors locally on your own infrastructure. This means you can try out new connectors before they are available natively within Elastic Cloud, and/or customize existing connectors.

See Connector clients (self-managed) for details on how to deploy connector clients.

Connector framework

edit

All Elastic connectors are built using our Python connector framework. The source code is available in the elastic/connectors repository on GitHub.

The connector framework is available for developers to customize existing connector clients or build their own connectors. Refer to Elastic connector framework for details.
