Self-Service Updates for domains annexed by the Amazon Elasticsearch Service

Amazon Elasticsearch is an open-source search and analytics engine for use cases like log analytics, real-time application monitoring, and clickstream analysis. Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES) is a organized service which makes it simple to deploy, run, and scale Elasticsearch clusters in the AWS Cloud. You get direct access to the Elasticsearch APIs; existing code and applications work smoothly with the service of Amazon Elasticsearch Service. It delivers all the resources for your Elasticsearch cluster and starts it and by default finds and replaces failed Elasticsearch nodes, minimizing the overhead linked with self-managed infrastructures. You can scale your cluster with a one API call or a few clicks in the console. Amazon Elasticsearch Service provides integrations with other open-source tools such as Kibana and Logstash for data absorbing and visualization. It also integrates smoothly with other AWS services like Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), AWS Lambda, AWS IAM, Amazon CloudWatch, and many more which helps you access from data to actionable insights faster and safer.

Amazon Elasticsearch Service frequently announces system software updates which further add features or enhance your domains. Now Amazon ES launched self-service updates, offering you the flexibility to control when to update your domains. In just one click you can update your domain. Amazon Elasticsearch Service is accessible in 16 regions across the globe : AWS GovCloud (US-West), US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (Oregon, N. California), Canada (Montreal), South America (Sao Paulo), EU (Ireland, London, Frankfurt, Paris), and Asia Pacific (Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo, Seoul, Mumbai). By default, it will automatically update your domains after the date and time specified in the update, if you do not perform any action. To check if an update is available, refer your console.
