### AI overview

Forrester named Elastic a Strong Performer in its Q4 2026 AIOps Platforms Wave, evaluating 10 providers across 24 criteria; Elastic says it received the highest possible scores in five, including explainability, OpenTelemetry and GitOps alignment, sovereign deployment, and pricing transparency. Elastic describes its nightshift AI SRE as an always-on agent that shows its reasoning, data, alternatives, and supporting evidence for engineers to verify before approving actions. It says cost-efficient storage lets teams retain logs, traces, and metrics together, while compact environmental context helps the agent reason efficiently. The agent carries lessons from earlier incidents into later investigations and aims to surface issues beyond rule-based alerts. Elastic also emphasizes native-form telemetry and OpenTelemetry to support instrumentation changes without rebuilding pipelines or translating schemas. These are Elastic's descriptions; the article notes Forrester does not endorse products or advise selection based on its ratings.
