Pushing boundaries with Elastic Maps 7.10

Elastic Maps added several exciting features with the release of Kibana 7.10 that let you do even more with your location data. From making it easier to upload files with latitude and longitude fields to being able to trigger an alert when something moves across a boundary, there are a host of jaw droppingly cool new things to check out. I’ll be providing a good overview in this blog, but to see the real magic, I’d suggest:

How JetBrains uses .NET, Elasticsearch, CSVs, and Kibana for awesome dashboards

Recently, the JetBrains .NET advocacy team published a deep-dive post powered by data we retrieved from the official NuGet APIs with the goal of better understanding our community's OSS past and trying to predict trends into the future. This resulted in a giant dataset. Given our experience with Elasticsearch, we knew that the best tool to process millions of records was what we're calling the NECK stack: .NET, Elasticsearch, CSV, and Kibana. In this blog, we'll explore what it took to retrieve

Working for Elastic (out of a van)

I’ve always appreciated the trust Elastic bestows on each of us to do our jobs in a way that suits our individual modes of productivity. While remote work is now ubiquitous because of the pandemic, Elastic has been distributed by design from the start. With this in the company's DNA, Elasticians have the advantage of a healthy, distributed culture that was carefully cultivated years before everyone had to shift to a remote format overnight. You like working in sweatpants? No sweat. You enjoy hea

Announcing auto-complete with type hints in the Elasticsearch Python client

Python introduced support for type hints in Python 3.5 via PEP 484, allowing tools like Mypy and Pyright to check your Python code for type conflicts before execution. This also helps tools that provide code auto-complete —  like IDE, IPython, and Jupyter Notebooks — by providing a complete function signature, even for functions that are generated on import time like the Elasticsearch Python client. If you search GitHub for instances of Python using Elasticsearch along with the new typing m

Improving search relevance with data-driven query optimization

When building a full-text search experience such as an FAQ search or Wiki search, there are a number of ways to tackle the challenge using the Elasticsearch Query DSL. For full-text search there’s a relatively long list of possible query types to use, ranging from the simplest match query up to the powerful intervals query. Independent of the query type you choose, you’ll also be faced with understanding and tweaking a list of parameters. While Elasticsearch uses good defaults for query paramete

Helping Elastic employees avoid pandemic-era burnout

The COVID-19 pandemic has posed a critical challenge to even the most battle-tested organizations worldwide.

The importance of metadata in your Kubernetes observability initiatives

This blog was originally posted on tfir.io.Kubernetes is a popular container orchestration system at the heart of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation projects. It automates the deployment, lifecycle, and operations of containers, containerized applications, and "pods," which are groups of one or more containers. The platform itself, along with each of these workloads, may generate event data. There are different kinds of data associated with these processes. Logs can range from simple "yep, go

Leadership @ Elastic | Getting out of your comfort zone and the power of networking

Power to Fly is a platform where employees and companies who value gender diversity and inclusion can connect. Job boards, talks from female thought leaders, and regular events make Power to Fly the go-to stop for women looking to further their career. We’ve written about Power to Fly before to highlight how some of our Elasticians have contributed to the Power to Fly mission. Recently, Annika Ekdahl, regional VP leading the sales team for EMEA North at Elastic, delivered a talk for Power to Fly
