Last Friday, Oracle delivered Elasticsearch for PeopleSoft.  
They deliver a package with release 2.3.2.

I don't want to install it and would like to run Elastic Cloud instead but it is 2.3.5 ...

any one knows difference between 2.3.2 and 2.3.5 ?  
they delivered a custom plugin in 2.3.2 will it work in 2.3.5 or higher version ?  
Thanks a lot.

Stéphane.

You can look at the release notes for [2.3.3](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/2.3/release-notes-2.3.3.html), [2.3.4](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/2.3/release-notes-2.3.4.html) and [2.3.5](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/2.3/release-notes-2.3.5.html). You'll note that these are bug fixes as that's how we handle patch releases in the Elastic stack.

In 2.x, plugins must be built against specific versions of Elasticsearch.

If the `plugin.descriptor` for the plugin does not say `elasticsearch.version=2.3.5`, then no.

@jasontedor  
in fact deliverd 4 plugins:

1. orcl-acl-plugins
2. orcl-autehntiation-plugin
3. orcl-crawl-plugin
4. orcl-ssl-plugin

and they both have : elasticsearch.version=2.3.2 in plugin-descriptor.properties

So I need to go back to them to deliver at least a 2.3.5 ? but 5.0.0 would be better no ?

Stéphane.

I don't think you will be able to install these plugins in Elastic Cloud as they, based on the names, contain functionality around security and crawling.
