Elastic made their latest minor Elasticsearch release on May 25, 2021. Elasticsearch Version 7.13 contains the rollout of several features that were only in preview in earlier versions. There are also enhancements to existing features, critical bug fixes, and some breaking changes of note. Three more patches have been released on the minor version, and more are expected before releasing the next minor version.
Back in February, we introduced Grafana Enterprise Logs (GEL) into the Grafana Enterprise Stack. GEL is a new way for large organizations to ingest and query their full log volume, without the cost or operational complexity associated with other solutions. (View a demo here.) We just released GEL 1.1, and one of its key features is label-based access control (LBAC).
Today we’re releasing our next major version of Icinga 2. Icinga 2.13 includes many long awaited enhancements and bug fixes, but also a lot of smaller changes.
Today, we are happy to announce three major improvements that will make it easier to integrate your systems and applications with the Elastic Stack. First, we are launching the generally available (GA) release of our Elastic Agent, which is a single, unified agent for both observability and security. A unified agent will simplify data onboarding with fewer things to configure and install.
