Service Catalog Version 0.111.7Last updated in version 0.95.1

Amazon Elasticsearch Service

Overview

This service contains code to deploy an Amazon Elasticsearch Service cluster. See the Amazon Elasticsearch Service documentation and the Getting Started page for more information.

Features

A fully-managed native Elasticsearch cluster in a VPC
A fully functional Kibana UI
VPC-based security
Zone awareness, i.e., deployment of Elasticsearch nodes across Availability Zones
Automatic nightly snapshots
CloudWatch Alarms for alerting when CPU, memory, and disk metrics exceed certain thresholds

This repo is a part of the Gruntwork Service Catalog, a collection of reusable, battle-tested, production ready infrastructure code. If you’ve never used the Service Catalog before, make sure to read How to use the Gruntwork Service Catalog!

Deploy

Non-production deployment (quick start for learning)

If you just want to try this repo out for experimenting and learning, check out the following resources:

examples/for-learning-and-testing folder: The examples/for-learning-and-testing folder contains standalone sample code optimized for learning, experimenting, and testing (but not direct production usage).
AWS Free tier: Using Amazon ES on Amazon’s free tier is a great way to get started, but it has limited features and does not include encryption at rest, ultra warm data notes, or advanced security options such as fine-grained access control. The free tier does allow multiple availability zones, VPC-based access control, TLS-only requests, and node-to-node encryption.

Production deployment

If you want to deploy this repo in production, check out the following resources:

examples/for-production folder: The examples/for-production folder contains sample code optimized for direct usage in production. This is code from the Gruntwork Reference Architecture, and it shows you how we build an end-to-end, integrated tech stack on top of the Gruntwork Service Catalog.
