Elastic Transforms Pricing Structure to Solution-Based Model, Enhancing Clarity for Elasticsearch, Observability, and Security Deployments
What happened
Between the Apr 1, 2025 and Jul 6, 2025 captures of Elastic's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Elastic restructured their pricing page from showing detailed tier-based pricing (Standard, Gold, Platinum, Enterprise) to a solution-based routing page organized by Elasticsearch, Observability, and Security with deployment type comparisons (Hosted vs Serverless). Pulse files it as a packaging change (package change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Sep 14, 2026) lists Cloud Hosted - Standard at $99, Cloud Hosted - Gold at $114, Cloud Hosted - Platinum at $131, Cloud Hosted - Enterprise at $184 and Security Serverless - Essentials at $0.05 per GB egress + $0.09 per GB ingested.
Elastic's previous recorded change was "Elastic Moves Hybrid Ranking to Enterprise Plan, Enhancing Search Features with AI Assistant and Semantic Boost" (Q4 2024). Before that Pulse recorded "Elastic Introduces AI Assistant for Generative AI in Enterprise Plan, Enhancing Observability Features" (Q1 2024). Elastic has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window Sumologic, Dynatrace and Datadog also changed their Cloud & DevOps pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
“Elasticsearch” is the name Elastic’s pricing page uses; Pulse files the change under Elastic, the company it tracks.
