Elasticsearch Serverless

Elasticsearch is an open source distributed search and analytics engine, scalable data store, and vector database. It’s optimized for speed and relevance on production-scale workloads.

Understanding Elasticsearch on serverless

If you haven’t used Elasticsearch before, first learn the basics in the core Elasticsearch documentation.

Elasticsearch Serverless is one of the three available project types on Elastic Cloud Serverless.

This project type enables you to use the core functionality of Elasticsearch: searching, indexing, storing, and analyzing data of all shapes and sizes.

When using Elasticsearch on Elastic Cloud Serverless you don’t need to worry about managing the infrastructure that keeps Elasticsearch distributed and available: nodes, shards, and replicas. These resources are completely automated on the serverless platform, which is designed to scale up and down with your workload.

This automation allows you to focus on building your search applications and solutions.
