Our take
Elastic develops the Elastic Stack, an open-source set of tools that includes Elasticsearch, Kibana, Beats, and Logstash, designed for data search and analysis. It also offers X-Pack, which adds commercial features to the Elastic Stack, and Elastic Cloud, a suite of SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) products.
This technology is widely used by major companies like eBay, Wikipedia, Yelp, Uber, Lyft, Tinder, and Netflix, along with over 17,000 other organizations. It is applied in various use cases, including application and website search, enterprise search, logging, infrastructure monitoring, application performance management (APM), security analytics (enhancing SIEM applications), and business analytics.
