We are happy to announce that Elasticsearch versions 8.17 through 9.2 are now available on Aptible. These versions introduce a significant number of enhancements and features to ElasticSearch, including improvements to performance, vector search, and semantic modeling. Since this is a significant upgrade from our previously offered version of Elasticsearch 7.10, we recommend that users review the Elasticsearch release notes closely for compatibility.

Additionally, due to the lack of open-source versions between Elasticsearch 7.10 and 8.17, we will not be able to offer any in-place database upgrades at this time. We advise customers to provision new databases or use ElasticSearch’s snapshot and restore API (such as the S3 repository plugin) to transfer indices to a newer version.
