  • SSPL/ELv2 licensing block forces ES → OpenSearch and the migration timeline is approved, but the security-plugin + Kibana dashboard conversion scope needs design.
  • Elastic Cloud → Amazon OpenSearch Service for cost — but ELSER / ESQL / Universal Profiling feature gaps need an audit first.
  • ES 7.x → 8.x upgrade is overdue — breaking changes + index reindex need planning before code ships.

Tested cutover playbooks with replication-lag gates

Elasticsearch Migration Services

In short: An Elasticsearch migration covers ES → OpenSearch (SSPL/ELv2-driven), Elastic Cloud onboarding, Amazon OpenSearch Service cost moves, ES 7.x → 8.x upgrades, and Kibana dashboard conversion. Each runs snapshot/restore or reindex-from-remote, a security-plugin and feature-gap audit, then a replication-lag-monitored cutover with a defined rollback procedure.

ES → OpenSearch SSPL/ELv2-driven cutover, Elastic Cloud onboarding, Amazon OpenSearch Service cost migration, ES 7.x → 8.x version upgrades, Kibana dashboard conversion — with replication-lag-monitored cutovers. See Elasticsearch consulting for the architecture-decision phase or the ES vs OpenSearch comparison.

Elasticsearch migrations we handle

Each path has a tested runbook — snapshot/restore cutover, replication-lag gating, defined rollback procedure.

ES → OpenSearch
SSPL/ELv2-driven canonical migration. From ES 7.10 clean snapshot/restore; from 8.x reindex-from-remote. Security plugin migration is the largest piece.
Elastic Cloud Onboarding
Self-managed → Elastic Cloud (multi-cloud), sizing via Resource Component Units, tier template selection, snapshot-and-restore cutover.
Elastic Cloud → Amazon OpenSearch Service
Cost-driven migration for AWS-resident workloads. Feature-gap audit critical — ELSER/ESQL/Universal Profiling don't exist on OpenSearch.
ES 7.x → 8.x Upgrade
Breaking-change audit (mapping types, security defaults, deprecated APIs), index reindex for pre-7.0 data, application-tier validation.
Kibana → OpenSearch Dashboards
Dashboard inventory + conversion-effort estimate. Kibana 7.10 imports cleanly; 8.x requires manual conversion for Elastic-proprietary apps.
Index Reindexing
Major version jumps with index format incompatibility, reindex-from-remote orchestration, alias-cutover patterns for zero-downtime.
