# New in Elastic 8.2

Elastic 8.2 has arrived! This release enables you to build seamless search experiences, accelerate troubleshooting of cloud-native services, and enhance your security analysts’ investigative experience

Elastic 8.2 is [available now on Elastic Cloud](https://cloud.elastic.co/registration?elektra=whats-new-elastic-8-2-0-blog) — the only hosted Elasticsearch offering to include all of the new features in this latest release.

New to Elastic? Welcome aboard. You can get started today with a [free 14-day trial of Elastic Cloud](https://cloud.elastic.co/registration?elektra=whats-new-elastic-8-2-0-blog). Or, if the [benefits of using a managed service](https://www.elastic.co/cloud) have yet to win you over, you can always [download](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/) a self-managed version of the Elastic Stack for free.
