Aptible has released support for version 7 of the Elasticsearch Database type. This major version includes:

• Native user authentication and HTTPS - previously this was achieved in Deploy with a proxy in front of the database

• Compatibility with Elasticsearch's official Kibana image

• Log rotation and backups via Kibana's Index Lifecycle Management and Snapshot Lifecycle Management

Users of our aptible/elasticsearch-logstash-s3-backup application for past versions of Elasticsearch will be pleased to learn that functionality is now native in Kibana for Elasticsearch 7.

We have a setup guide as well as documentation for the new version for your reading pleasure!
