Hi, Wanted to check with the community if there was a mistake in my understanding. I was told that Gold subscription is provided to self-managed instances only if the infra we have confirms to the following specs: 3 nodes, each having 64GB ram, 8 core cpu, 2TB ssd. What we presently have is 1-node, t3a.xlarge (16GB ram, 4 core cpu, 1TB ssd from ebs). Are we eligible for ELK Gold subscription of self-managed infra? The need for Gold subscription is only for obtaining email alerts. Thanks for your time in reading this query and replying. ---

The community won't be able to confirm this, because it's a contractual agreement between yourselves and Elastic (ie "us"). However if that's a little too much for your budget, you should look at our Elasticsearch Service. ---
