Amazon OpenSearch Service launches Cluster Insights for improved operational visibility

Amazon OpenSearch Service Cluster Insights

Amazon OpenSearch Service now includes Cluster Insights, a monitoring solution that provides comprehensive operational visibility of your clusters through a single dashboard. This eliminates the complexity of having to analyze and correlate various logs and metrics to identify potential risks to cluster availability or performance.

Cluster Insights automates the consolidation of critical operational data across nodes, indices, and shards, transforming complex troubleshooting into a streamlined process. When investigating performance issues like slow search queries, Cluster Insights displays relevant performance metrics, affected cluster resources, top-N query analysis, and specific remediation steps in one comprehensive view.

The solution operates through OpenSearch UI's resilient architecture, maintaining monitoring capabilities even during cluster unavailability. Users gain immediate access to account-level cluster summaries, enabling efficient management of multiple deployments.

What to do

• Upgrade to OpenSearch version 2.17 or later to access Cluster Insights.
• Explore the Cluster Insights dashboard for operational visibility and troubleshooting.
• Refer to the technical documentation for more details.
