Using your own domain cname to access cloud elastic instance?

[agonzalez (Alberto)]

I am using cloud.elastic.co instance but it provides you long URL to access ES like XXXXXXXXXXXXXX.us-east-xx.aws.found.io

I tried to set a DNS CNAME like "es.mycompany.com" to mask the name but then trying to access elasticsearch using my domain doesnt work.

How is possible to use your own domain name with elastic cloud instance?

You can't. Read:

As the link has been removed ans some people still find this answer, I'm linking to another more recent post which has more information:

Elastic Cloud custom domain?

Hey Alberto It's not fully supported today as the browser will complain about TLS as the certificate won't be for the same domain. You can define a CNAME. If your cluster is for example abcdef.us-east-1.aws.found.io you can add a CNAME my-es-cluster in your DNS which goes to abcdef.us-east-1.aws.found.io. It will be fully supported in the future AFAIK. But no ETA on this though.
