Getting started with Elastic App Search on Elastic Cloud

With Elastic App Search, you can easily add rich, powerful search to your website, applications, or mobile apps. And now you can deploy directly from the Elastic Cloud. App Search is built on top of Elasticsearch, meaning that it’s highly scalable and fast. It comes out of the box with pre-tuned relevance, but gives you plenty of user-friendly options for fine-tuning results to customize the search experience.

What Happens When User Research Meets Database Development

Fast-growing products are not overnight successes contrary to what you often hear. At InfluxData, we’re on a mission to build a user base from scratch with our new flagship product InfluxDB Cloud. Every new user has to go through a signup flow to create their account. So it must go as smoothly as possible. User research and design experimentation are the way we’ll reach this goal, and the main ingredient in this recipe is you: the community member.

Automate all the things: Terraform + Ansible + Elastic Cloud Enterprise

A sequel to our first post, Automating the installation of Elastic Cloud Enterprise with Ansible, this blog shows how to extend automation to cloud provisioning with Terraform. In the first post, we detailed how to deploy and configure Elastic Cloud Enterprise (ECE) across three availability zones in AWS using Ansible. However, the provisioning of the underlying EC2 instances and configuration of the security groups was all manual.

Elastic Common Schema .NET library and integrations released

The Elastic Common Schema (ECS) defines a common set of fields for ingesting data into Elasticsearch. A common schema helps you correlate data from sources like logs and metrics or IT operations analytics and security analytics. Further information on ECS can be found in the official Elastic documentation, GitHub repository, or the Introducing Elastic Common Schema article.
