Hiya! Our Elasticsearch team is continually improving our index Lifecycle Management (ILM) feature. When I first joined Elastic Support, I quickly got up to speed via our Automate rollover with ILM tutorial. I noticed after helping multiple users set up ILM that escalations mainly emerge from a handful of configuration issues. In the following sections, I’d like to cover frequent tickets, diagnostic flow, and common error recoveries. All commands shown can be run via Kibana’s Dev Tools.

Gamers are not shy about reaching into their wallets for premium content and features. They also won’t hesitate to tap the uninstall button at the first sign of trouble.

At InfluxData, we support our users by providing the following resources. Searching through all of these resources and more, like GitHub issues, can be time-consuming and difficult. In response, the support team at InfluxData has recently created InfluxData Support.

Grafana presents some of the most versatile tools for visualizing and understanding the real-time performance and reliability of systems, regardless of where your data lives. But one question our customers frequently ask is, “Can I use Grafana to understand the health and performance of my business?” More often than not, our answer is yes.

Rapid digital transformation partnered with increased cloud adoption have resulted in organizations generating unprecedentedly large volumes of data. This data is stored in disparate data repositories due to organizational boundaries, data protection, and privacy laws (e.g. GDPR). Additionally, it is stored across environment types with some kept in the cloud and often historical data and other sensitive data types are kept in on-premise environments contributing to more data silos.
