We are pleased to announce the general availability of cross-cluster search (CCS) and cross-cluster replication (CCR) for your Elasticsearch clusters across any deployment environment. Starting today, you can easily search and replicate data between Elasticsearch clusters, even when they reside in different environments, such as on-premises, public cloud, as well as hybrid and multi-cloud.
In this blog, we’ll review some of the fundamentals regarding CCS and CCR. We’ll also take a look at how to apply this functionality to your Elasticsearch, Observability, and Security use cases.

Cross-cluster search
With this new release, CCS empowers you with a single view of your data — across all your Elastic clusters, wherever they may be. Consider a situation where you have an on-premises data center and a public cloud environment. You can keep sensitive data in your own data center and non-sensitive data in the cloud, while maintaining complete visibility across both environments from a single user interface.
Similarly, as you’re gradually migrating your Elastic workloads to the cloud, you can still retain complete visibility throughout the process and not have to migrate all of your workloads at once.
CCS enables you to bring all of your data together regardless of location, so you can discover what you need faster, troubleshoot a production application, or analyze security events. No data siloing or barriers to key information and insights. Find what you’re looking for to accelerate the results that matter.
