What: We are introducing a new concept in observability-- the Elastic Entity Model ("EEM"). EEM is:
A conceptual framework to break down silos between observability/security data sources by providing a shared understanding of what the data is about
A set of extensible schemas which allow entities and their associated signals to be defined, stored, and queried
A set of APIs to empower solution teams to build entity-centric features
When: The initial release will be a technical preview introduction of a very narrow scope, aligned to support the ECO technical preview for signal-agnostic services from logs. Planned introduction mid-July, 2024
Why: as we evolve into the next era of AI-powered Observability, we will shift toward entity-centric user journeys-- leading customers on a path toward understanding the operational state of the things they care about (entities) and "on rails" experiences toward ensuring customer experiences in the context of those entities.
Resources
tbd
Which documentation set does this change impact?
Stateful and Serverless
Feature differences
This feature will first be introduced in Serverless and later to the next stack release of stateful.
There are no meaningful differences planned across deployment methods.
