Hi,

Does it exist a free (cloud or not) hosting Elasticsearch provider ?

Regards,

Charles

Hi Charles,

Some providers announced Free plans for limited usage (dev).

Hi,

Hosted OpenShift is definitely an option if you are fine with  
non-distributed mode (just running a single ES node) and limited  
resources (RAM, open files descriptors, ... etc - tip. make sure to use  
compound index format). We use it this way for ES related development in  
some cases. Hopefully, it would be possible to easily run ES also in  
distributed mode on OpenShift in the future.

Regards,  
Lukas

As I already use OpenShift, that should be easy. Somebody has already done  
such a test  
([https://www.openshift.com/blogs/searching-with-elasticsearch-on-openshift](https://www.openshift.com/blogs/searching-with-elasticsearch-on-openshift)).
