⚪ 🔍 Elastic's monitoring agents decided to practice the strong, silent type for three days straight. Turns out metrics weren't flowing anywhere—just vibes and prayers. The patient is stable now, but AutoOps dashboards are looking patchier than a conspiracy theorist's evidence board.

// The official story

AutoOps monitoring data not ingested for subset of deployments

// Status page says

Jul 21 , 13:45 UTC Identified - RESOLVED - Between Jul 18 02:40 UTC and Jul 20 14:00 UTC, a subset of Elastic Agents were unable to report metrics to AutoOps across all regions. The underlying issue has been corrected and data is flowing normally. Impacted deployments may notice some gaps in their AutoOps monitoring data during this timeframe. Note this incident has already been resolved, and is being posted retroactively.

Elastic's Greatest Hits

🟢 ELASTIC 5d ago

🟡 Elastic's GCP us-central1 region decided projects should come with a 'read receipts disabled' feature. Some Serverless deployments are either moving at geological timescales or vanishing entirely. The status page says 'investigating' which is tech speak for 'we're refreshing our monitors and hoping it fixes itself.'. (Auto-resolved: no updates in 24h)

🟡 Elastic's AutoOps can't find its node metrics (CPU, memory, disk) in certain regions—they're just gone from recent time ranges. The good news: your data's fine, cluster health is fine, everything else is fine. It's just the one thing you need to see that's MIA. ETA on the scavenger hunt: 2 hours.

🟡 Elastic's own support portal decided to become unsupported. The company that helps you monitor everything apparently turned off monitoring for, well, everything. They're 'investigating' with their provider—translation: playing hot potato with blame while customers scream into the void. (Auto-resolved: no updates in 24h)

⚪ Someone deployed a DNS config change that yeet'd .apm endpoints into the void. Serverless customers got the silent treatment for ~9 hours until engineers remembered these endpoints existed. Elastic's internal DNS provider apparently needed a nap.
