Additional features include the general availability of schema on read, which allows customers to discover new data and new workflows by creating a schema on the fly, and the general availability of our supervised machine learning which provides customers with a single place to store, transform, build, test, and deploy supervised machine learning models.

Elastic Observability

- Enabled additional scalability and flexibility of data ingest architectures with the beta release of Fleet Server.
Elastic Security
- Accelerated threat hunting and investigation workflows with the general availability of analyst-driven correlation powered by Event Query Language (EQL).

These items necessary to reconcile such non-GAAP measures could be material and have a significant impact on the Company’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.
