Easy Elasticsearch management
Find out how AutoOps can help you simplify Elasticsearch management, fix problems quickly, improve performance, and save on hardware costs.
Deploy your way
AutoOps is now available for all Elastic deployments, giving you the flexibility to simplify cluster management wherever you run Elastic.
For self-managed: Simple setup via Cloud Connect
Get started in minutes. A lightweight agent securely sends operational metrics (not your data) to AutoOps in Elastic Cloud. This is available to customers with an active Enterprise subscription at no additional cost.
For Elastic Cloud: A fully integrated experience
When you use Elastic Cloud, AutoOps is fully integrated, meaning zero setup is required. It automatically monitors your deployments, providing insights and recommendations directly within the Elastic Cloud console. There's nothing to install or configure — it just works.
Easy setup via Cloud Connect
Bring the power of AutoOps to your self-managed clusters with Cloud Connect. Using a lightweight agent, to securely send operational metrics (not your data) to AutoOps in Elastic Cloud.

AutoOps metrics are stored internally within Elastic's infrastructure, not on customer deployments. Therefore, using AutoOps does not consume customer ECU.
It's not magic, it's just some seriously clever tech. AutoOps analyzes operational metrics from your cluster: think shard sizes, CPU usage, and memory pressure to detect common performance bottlenecks and resource-related issues before they become critical problems. AutoOps does the heavy lifting so you don't have to.
Not just yet, but it gives you the next best thing: customized recommendations. For every issue it finds, AutoOps provides clear, actionable steps you can take to resolve it. It’s like having an Elastic expert on standby, guiding you on how to optimize your nodes and indices.
Elastic Agent only extracts and sends cluster metrics to Elastic Cloud, not the underlying data within your cluster. For more information, please refer to the documentation.
Absolutely. AutoOps can notify you where you work. You can set up alerts for a variety of services, including Slack, PagerDuty, Microsoft Teams, and even a custom webhook. That way, you'll get a heads-up on critical issues right away, without having to stare at a dashboard all day.
