Today, we are excited to announce the general availability of Elastic Cloud Serverless on Microsoft Azure — now available in the EastUS region. Elastic Cloud Serverless provides the fastest way to start and scale security, observability, and search solutions without managing infrastructure. Built on the industry-first Search AI Lake architecture — which relies on Azure Blob Storage — it combines vast storage, separate storage and compute, low-latency querying, and advanced AI capabilities to deliver uncompromising speed and scale.

Start and scale quickly with Elastic Cloud Serverless on Azure

  • Compute here, store there: Scale workloads independently with decoupled compute and storage that always balances performance and cost efficiency in high-demand scenarios.

  • Decouple search from indexing: Separating search and index tiers enables workloads to be scaled independently and reliably, with optimized hardware for each use case. 

  • Low-latency even on object stores: Get fast performance with segment-level query parallelization and intelligent caching, even when querying vast data from object storage.

  • Hassle-free operations: Say goodbye to managing clusters, provisioning nodes, or fine-tuning performance. Free your team from operational tasks — no need to manage infrastructure, do capacity planning, upgrade, or scale data. 
  • Flexible usage-based pricing model: Elastic Cloud Serverless offers a usage-based pricing model that scales with your needs. You only pay for what you use — whether it’s for data ingested and retained in Elastic Security and Observability products or for compute resources in Elasticsearch.

Getting started with Elastic Cloud Serverless on Azure

When you sign up or log in to the Elastic Cloud console, you can create a serverless project by specifying the type of project you want (Elasticsearch, Elastic Observability, or Elastic Security). If you choose an Observability or Security project, select Azure as the cloud provider and EastUS as the region. For an Elasticsearch project, choose the use case (“General Purpose” or “Optimized for Vectors”), and then select Azure as the cloud provider and EastUS as the region. After clicking "Create project," your Elastic Cloud Serverless project will be provisioned within minutes.
