Hey there 👋,

I've created a blog post about my experiences with Elastic Cloud ☁ Serverless projects on Microsoft Azure 🌊 (Technical Preview). I think it might be interesting read for the Elastic Community here.

Additional it would be great if other Elastic gurus share their thoughts and experiences.

You can read the full blog post on LinkedIn.

Very well written, engaging writing style, easy to read and follow, low on acronyms and business BS, and (most importantly) useful.

Nice to include the Rally run data.

If I'd never heard of Elasticsearch Serverless, I'd know much more now.

My only minor (and really minor) nitpick is it's a bit like a review of say RHEL, where they install it, comment on the setup process, and maybe run a benchmark or two. Thats day 1 in the city. Day 2+ is using stuff for real world data, actual work, where you have to explore many more side streets and back alleys. Maybe a followup in a few weeks / months can add that colour.

But still, as is, it's excellent. 👍

Hi Kevin, thanks for your kind words 🙏🏽.

Agreeing when day 1-2 operations comes again must be included. something I'm looking for in the future. At the moment on Azure it's still in Technical Preview, so will continuous follow the roadmap and validate new or improved features.
