Elastic NV is an American-Dutch software company that provides self-managed and software as a service (SaaS) offerings for search, logging, security, observability, and analytics use cases.[2] It was founded in 2012 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and was previously known as Elasticsearch.[3]

The company develops the Elastic Stack—Elasticsearch, Kibana, Beats, and Logstash—previously known as the ELK Stack,[4] free and paid proprietary features (formerly called X-Pack), Elastic Cloud (a family of SaaS offerings including the Elasticsearch Service), and Elastic Cloud Enterprise (ECE).[5][6]

Elasticsearch technology is used by eBay, Wikipedia, Yelp, Uber, Lyft, Tinder, and Netflix.[7][8] Elasticsearch is also implemented in use cases such as application search, site search, enterprise search, logging, infrastructure monitoring, application performance management, security analytics (also used to augment security information and event management applications), and business analytics. The Elasticsearch meetup community totals more than 100,000 members.[9] Elastic is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol ESTC.[10]

Citing headwinds from the global macroeconomic environment, Elastic NV announced a 13% reduction in headcount on November 30, 2022.[11][12]
