Hello,

I want to be able to set up for example all the beats in the same pod.  
Is it possible to achieve using Elasticserach Orchestration Kubernetes API?

Do you mean ECK?

Hey @Adriann, thanks for your question.

This is not possible to do using ECK. Each Beat is a separate deployment (a Deployment or DaemonSet). The closest you can get to that is to use [Elastic Agent](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/fleet/7.14/fleet-overview.html) (see also in the [ECK documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-on-k8s/current/k8s-orchestrating-elastic-stack-applications.html)). Elastic Agent abstracts running individual Beats.

Thanks,  
David
