Elastic as service to visualize large amount of data

Upgrades are always included in the license.

Stephan suggested using Platinum is good enough for us intead of Enterprise.

Pricing:

volume based,

KAUST is already using Elastic search.

JAVA, JDBC can be used instead of RDMS. Minimum cluster size 3 nodes; 3 TB of data. How much data being captured? how much longer to retain?

Platinum 1 node 6600 3 nodes 19000$. As data grows add additional nodes.

Enterprise is based on size of the 64RAM. it will cost more than plantium. Upgrade is possible from plantium to enterprise.

License model?

Platium -> Enterprise -> ECK with limitiaton.

logstash with APM is possible. Injestion pipline.

Connectors to allow integration. Use web hook. Best practices are included in support.
