Elastic Cloud Enterprise is a self-managed orchestration platform for deploying and managing the Elastic Stack at scale.

Availability

  • Generally available

    This functionality is generally available and ready for production usage.

This documentation corresponds to the latest patch available for each minor version. If you're not using the latest patch, check the release notes for changes.

If an individual instance is experiencing issues, then you can stop it by selecting Pause instance from its menu.

Pausing an instance immediately suspends the container without completing existing requests by running either Docker stop or Podman stop, as applicable. The instance will then be marked as Paused.

You can start an instance by selecting Resume instance from the menu.

Pausing and resuming an instance can be helpful when an individual instance needs restarted without restarting the entire product. For example, you might restart an instance if an Elasticsearch node is unresponsive to the cluster due to stuck JVM.
