Issue
-
Is there a possibility to install Glowroot on an Elasticsearch server?
Environment
- Liferay DXP 7.4+
Resolution

Officially, Glowroot doesn't directly support Elasticsearch for data storage. There isn't a built-in plugin or configuration for it.
However, there are a couple of things to consider:
- Community Interest: There is a discussion on the Glowroot forum about the desire for Elasticsearch support [1]. While there's no official confirmation from developers, it indicates some interest in the community.
-
Third-Party Plugin: There's an unofficial Elasticsearch plugin available on Github [2]. It seems like an initial development but might be a starting point if you're comfortable customizing.
In summary, while there's no official Elasticsearch support in Glowroot, there are discussions for future inclusion and a third-party plugin for exploration.
You can follow the conversation here: https://groups.google.com/g/glowroot/c/IkMxfx1waF0/m/aKhtZ7eSAgAJ.
Also, for the plugin, this should be the one: https://github.com/glowroot/glowroot/blob/main/agent/plugins/elasticsearch-plugin/src/test/common/java/org/glowroot/agent/plugin/elasticsearch/ElasticsearchWrapper.java.
