Elastic enters two-year global strategic collaboration agreement with AWS

Elastic (ESTC) announced a new two-year global strategic collaboration agreement, or SCA, with Amazon (AMZN) Web Services, or AWS, to make it easier for shared customers to advance their pursuit of generative artificial intelligence, or AI, using Elastic Cloud on AWS. The new SCA will accelerate the integration of Amazon Bedrock into the Elastic AI Assistant, enabling customers to get richer and more contextualized and relevant results by using their preferred large language models, or LLMs, coupled with the organization’s unique IT environment and proprietary data sets. Amazon Bedrock is a fully managed service that makes foundation models from leading AI providers accessible via an API to build and scale generative AI applications. The first integration with the Elastic AI Assistant will be for security use cases, with observability use cases to follow. The Elastic AI Assistant utilizes generative AI to bolster an organization’s cybersecurity operations team. It allows users to interact with Elastic Security for tasks such as alert investigation, incident response, query generation or conversion using natural language, and much more.
