Elastic Stack

The Elastic Stack (formerly known as the ELK Stack) is a collection of open-source products from Elastic designed to help users take data from any source, in any format, and search, analyze, and visualize that data in real-time. The stack includes Elasticsearch for search and analytics, Kibana for visualization, Logstash for data processing, and Beats for data shipping.

Elastic Stack publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Bulk API, Cluster API, Doc API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Analytics, Logging, Monitoring, Observability, and Search.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/elastic-stack: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
