In progress
Q4 2024
Compliance
SOC2 compliance

Availability of Elastic Cloud Serverless products that are specifically designed to meet the Trust Service Criteria outlined in SOC2.

In progress
Q4 2024
Compliance
HIPAA compliance

Availability of Elastic Cloud Serverless products that are specifically designed to store and manage protected health information (PHI) while adhering to the security and privacy standards set by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

In progress
Q4 2024
Usability
Cross project search

Seamlessly explore, visualize, and receive alerts on data across your organization's serverless projects with cross project search. Whether your projects are spread across different cloud providers, regions, or project types, cross project search brings all of your data together.

In design
TBD
Security
Traffic filtering

Add another layer of security to your serverless deployments by restricting inbound traffic to only the sources that you trust. Restrict access to an IP address, a CIDR mask, an AWS VPC endpoint ID, Google Cloud Private Service Connect, or an Azure Private Link endpoint.

Planned
TBD
Security
Bring your own key

Bring your own key (BYOK) adds another layer of protection to your sensitive data by encrypting data at rest with your own keys. Providing encryption keys increases data confidentiality requirements and data disposal. You retain total control over your keys and, if required, their revocation, instantly rendering all data unusable.

Planned
TBD
Data Management
Save and restore user backups

Perform regular backups of critical data as well as transfer data from a serverless project or Elasticsearch cluster (self-managed or hosted on Elastic Cloud) to another serverless project or cluster.
