Availability This functionality is generally available and ready for production usage. Elastic Cloud Serverless projects are autoscaled environments, fully managed by Elastic and available on Elastic Cloud. Availability This functionality is generally available and ready for production usage. The Elastic Stack includes Elastic's core products such as Elasticsearch, Kibana, Logstash, and Beats. Availability This functionality is generally available and ready for production usage. Unless stated otherwise on the page, this functionality is available when your Elastic Stack is deployed on Elastic Cloud Hosted, Elastic Cloud Enterprise, Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes, and self-managed environments. 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.

This integration is used to collect metrics from etcd v2 and v3 instances.
It periodically fetches metrics from etcd metrics APIs.
For etcd v2, metrics are collected through the etcd v2 APIs, whereas for v3, they are fetched from the /metrics endpoint.
When using v3, datasets are bundled within metrics data stream, while for v2, available datasets include leader, self, and store.
etcd API endpoints:
/v2/stats/leader: This endpoint provides metrics related to the current leadership status. Used byleaderdata stream./v2/stats/self: Metrics exposed by this endpoint focus on the current node's status and performance. Used byselfdata stream./v2/stats/store: This endpoint offers metrics related to the data storage layer, including data size, read/write operations, and storage efficiency. Used bystoredata stream./metrics(v3 API): Unlike the more specific endpoints, this one provides a comprehensive set of metrics across various aspects of the system. Used bymetricsdata stream.
The etcd v2 APIs are not enabled by default. However, you can enable etcd v2 APIs when using etcd v3 and above by utilizing the --enable-v2 flag, provided it is supported.
The etcd package was tested with etcd 3.5.x.
You need Elasticsearch for storing and searching your data and Kibana for visualizing and managing it. You can use our hosted Elasticsearch Service on Elastic Cloud, which is recommended, or self-manage the Elastic Stack on your own hardware.
In order to ingest data from etcd, you must know the instance host.
Host Configuration Format: http[s]://host:port
Example Host Configuration: http://localhost:2379
This is the metrics dataset of the etcd package, in charge of retrieving generic metrics from a etcd v3 instance.
