For many developers, you may never have installed an open source version of Elastic Stack, because we’re used to installing Basic releases and above. In today’s presentation, I will show the differences between OSS versions and Basic and above installed on the interface. The OSS version is currently used by vendors such as Amazon that offer Elastic Stack cloud services. For most developers, we’ll probably never use it. You can check on the official website of Elastic to the various versions of the difference between www.elastic.co/cn/subscrip… .

In today’s demo, I’ll be using Elastic Stack 7.10.

The installation

Elasticsearch OSS version installed

We can download it directly to the address www.elastic.co/downloads/ :

Choose from above according to our platform and install separately. The installation steps are also straightforward. See the previous article “How to install Elasticsearch on Linux, MacOS, and Windows”.

Kibana OSS version installed

Let’s do the same and go to the download page:

Download and install it on your own platform. See the previous article “How to install Kibana in an Elastic stack on Linux, MacOS, and Windows” for the installation steps.

Kibana interface comparison after installation

For most developers, you may never install this VERSION of OSS in your life. Let’s do a simple Kibana interface comparison:

OSS version

Is it a lot less than the standard edition?

Basic version and above

Is there a lot more functionality in Elastic Basic and above? Of course, this is just an interface comparison. There are many actual functions that are not visible on the page.
