Elastic Cloud Hosted release notes

Review the changes, fixes, and more in each release of Elastic Cloud Hosted.

  • Upgrades Beats version. Upgrades metricbeat and filebeat for allocator-metricbeat and beats-runner to version 8.17.2.
  • Fixes an issue with beats-runner 8.17.0 image. The beats-runner 8.17.0 image could not properly start up beats services due to improper command-line flags.
  • Upcoming removal of SMS multifactor authentication method. In October, we made multifactor authentication mandatory for all users. As an additional security measure, the SMS MFA method will be removed in April. If you’re still using SMS, you will be prompted to set up a more secure MFA method, and your registered SMS MFA devices will be automatically deleted from Elastic Cloud.
  • Fixes an issue for indices with blocks literally set as null instead of false. If an index is created with the literal null value rather than false for a block in its settings, then that is what Elasticsearch returns even if it should be interpreted as false. With this fix, Elasticsearch Service now properly maps this to false.
  • Disables prompt=login and sign out of Okta before initiating SSO. Fixes an issue when using organization SAML SSO where users are required to re-authenticate with the external IdP due to ForceAuthn=true being sent in SAML requests. SAML requests will now send ForceAuthn=false.
  • Updates EOL banner. Updates the informational banner about the deprecation of Enterprise Search.
  • For Fleet, Allows the configuration of xpack.fleet.enableManagedLogsAndMetricsDataviews. Adds the xpack.fleet.enableManagedLogsAndMetricsDataviews setting to configure the automatic creation of global dataviews logs-* and metrics-*. (issue: #202807)
  • AutoOps expanded availability. AutoOps is now available to Elastic Cloud Hosted users in additional AWS regions: Oregon (us-west-2), Ireland (eu-west-1), and Singapore (ap-southeast-1). AutoOps will continue to be deployed to other AWS regions in the coming weeks. To track AutoOps availability, check AutoOps regions.
  • Template Optimizer. AutoOps now examines both new and updated templates, identifying specific fields that can be optimized for better performance.
  • New Deployment Performance Metrics Charts. AutoOps provides aggregate metrics at the cluster level for key performance indicators. The data is tier-based, offering users a comprehensive understanding of each tier and the entire cluster.
  • Passthrough hosted otel bound firehose requests. Passthrough hotel bound firehose requests and avoid processing by the proxy’s firehose middleware.
  • Deprecate Cloud Defend billing alerts. Following the deprecation of Cloud Defend in Serverless, removes the billing logic associated with the feature.
  • AutoOps shards view improvements. Improved navigation include a new time slider, ability to filter nodes by tier, and revised color schema.
  • AutoOps feedback button. A new feedback button has been introduced, allowing users to easily share their thoughts and suggest ideas for improvement.
  • Add the field dry_run to the rest of stateless components. Adds the field dry_run to stateless components in the response of the endpoint GET api/v1/deployments/{DEPLOYMENT_ID}. Also removes a check in the UI that is no longer required.
  • Bulk item level failures are treated as successfully delivered. Check the response body for bulk item level failures even when the HTTP request returns 200 from Elasticsearch. (issue: #11768)
