Elastic and AWS Forge Five-Year Alliance to Accelerate Secure AI Application Development

Elastic and AWS Join Forces to Drive Scalable AI Innovation

Elastic, the Search AI company, has entered into a five-year strategic collaboration agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to accelerate AI adoption at scale. This partnership aims to enable organizations to build secure, generative AI-based applications faster by integrating Elastic’s Search AI Platform with AWS services.

Through this collaboration, Elastic and AWS will focus on joint product integrations and go-to-market initiatives that simplify and speed up the development of AI-native solutions. The alliance supports customers in creating intelligent, scalable applications with enhanced security and flexibility.

Key Benefits of the Elastic-AWS Partnership

• Enable generative AI capabilities across Elastic solutions using high-performance foundation models via Amazon Bedrock.
• Support seamless migration of Elasticsearch workloads from on-premises environments to Elastic Cloud on AWS.
• Deliver ongoing cost efficiencies through Elastic Cloud Serverless on AWS.
• Accelerate agentic AI development through collaboration on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and agent-to-agent interoperability.
• Ensure comprehensive data protection for customers in regulated sectors such as Public Sector and Financial Services.

Elastic’s CEO highlighted the growing relevance of search as generative AI adoption increases, emphasizing how integrating Amazon Bedrock with Elastic’s platform enhances use cases in cybersecurity, observability, and beyond. This partnership empowers developers to build context-aware applications that leverage their data securely and at scale.

AWS Vice President Ruba Borno pointed out the value delivered for highly regulated industries needing strong data protection. The collaboration also supports standards like Model Context Protocols, enabling seamless interactions between AI agents. Customers will benefit from quick deployment options through the AWS Marketplace, combining Elastic's search capabilities with Amazon Bedrock on AWS’s secure global infrastructure.

Ongoing Collaboration and Customer Impact

The SCA builds on an existing relationship between Elastic and AWS, with integrations such as Elastic AI Assistant, Attack Discovery, Automatic Import, Automatic Migration, Automatic Troubleshoot, and AI Playground leveraging Amazon Bedrock’s Large Language Models. These tools assist customers in accelerating root cause analysis, synthesizing complex data, automating onboarding, and simplifying migrations.

Customers report significant performance improvements and operational efficiencies from this partnership:

• Generis reduced average search times by 1000%, cutting production of complex compliance documents from two weeks to two days, while maintaining data integrity and control.
• BigID achieved a 120x acceleration in query performance, enabling real-time insights and improved data security management across extensive data environments.

Recognition and Industry Position

Elastic’s recent awards within the AWS Partner Network underscore its leadership in generative AI infrastructure and data solutions. Named AWS Global Generative AI Infrastructure and Data Partner of the Year in December 2024, Elastic was among the first partners in the AWS Generative AI Competency. It also earned AWS competency designations for the Government and Education sectors earlier this year.

For executives focused on AI strategy and technology adoption, this collaboration signals a practical pathway to accelerate AI initiatives with trusted partners in cloud and search technology. The combined capabilities help reduce time to market, control costs, and meet compliance requirements.
