[preview] This functionality is in technical preview and may be changed or removed in a future release. Elastic will work to fix any issues, but features in technical preview are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.

An Observability project allows you to run Observability in an autoscaled and fully-managed environment, where you don’t have to manage the underlying Elasticsearch cluster or Kibana instances.

  1. Navigate to cloud.elastic.co and log in to your account.
  2. Within Serverless projects, click Create project.
  3. Under Observability, click Next.
  4. Enter a name for your project.

  5. (Optional) Click Edit settings to change your project settings:

    • Cloud provider: The cloud platform where you’ll deploy your project. We currently support Amazon Web Services (AWS).
    • Region: The region where your project will live.
  6. Click Create project. It takes a few minutes to create your project.
  7. When the project is ready, click Continue.

From here, you can start adding logs and other observability data.

To return to the onboarding page later, select Add data from the main menu.
