-
-
-| Option | Serverless | Hosted |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| **Cluster management** | Fully managed by Elastic. | You provision and manage your hosted clusters. Shared responsibility with Elastic. |
-| **Scaling** | Autoscales out of the box. | Manual scaling or autoscaling available for you to enable. |
-| **Upgrades** | Automatically performed by Elastic. | You choose when to upgrade. |
-| **Pricing** | Individual per project type and based on your usage. | Based on deployment size and subscription level. |
-| **Performance** | Autoscales based on your usage. | Manual scaling. |
-| **Solutions** | Single solution per project. | Full Elastic Stack per deployment. |
-| **User management** | Elastic Cloud-managed users. | Elastic Cloud-managed users and native Kibana users. |
-| **API support** | Subset of [APIs](https://www.elastic.co/docs/api). | All Elastic APIs. |

+# Compare Elastic Cloud Hosted and Serverless [elasticsearch-differences]
 
+This guide compares Elastic Cloud Hosted deployments with Elastic Cloud Serverless projects, highlighting key features and capabilities across different project types. Use this information to understand what's available in each deployment option or to plan migrations between platforms.
 
-# Differences from other Elasticsearch offerings [elasticsearch-differences]
+:::{note}
+The information below reflects our strategic goals, plans and objectives and includes estimated release dates, anticipated features and functions, and proposed descriptions for commercial features. All details are for information only and are subject to change in our discretion. Information may be updated, added, or removed from this document as features or products become available, canceled, or postponed.
+:::
 
+## Architectural differences
 
-[{{es-serverless}}](../../../solutions/search.md) handles all the infrastructure management for you, providing a fully managed {{es}} service.
+Elastic Cloud Serverless takes a fundamentally different approach to running the Elastic Stack compared to Elastic Cloud Hosted:
 
-If you’ve used {{es}} before, you’ll notice some differences in how you work with the service on {{serverless-full}}, because a number of APIs and settings are not required for serverless projects.
-
-This guide helps you understand what’s different, what’s available, and how to work effectively when running {{es}} on {{serverless-full}}.
-
-
-## Fully managed infrastructure [elasticsearch-differences-serverless-infrastructure-management]
-
-{{es-serverless}} manages all infrastructure automatically, including:
+| **Functionality** | Elastic Cloud Hosted | Elastic Cloud Serverless |
+|--------|----------------------|--------------------------|
+| **Management model** | Self-service infrastructure | Fully managed service |
+| **Project organization** | Single deployments with multiple capabilities | Separate projects for Elasticsearch, Observability, and Security |
+| **Scaling** | Manual or automated with configuration | Fully automated |
+| **Infrastructure decisions** | User manages capacity | Automatically managed by Elastic |
+| **Pricing model** | Based on provisioned resources | Based on usage |
+| **Cloud providers** | AWS, Azure, GCP  | AWS, Azure (in preview), GCP (in preview) |
+| **Upgrades** | User-controlled timing | Automatically performed by Elastic |
+| **User management** | Elastic Cloud-managed and deployment-local users | Elastic Cloud-managed users only. Serverless users are managed at the organization level with SAML authentication support. |
+| **Backups** | User-managed with Snapshot & Restore | Automatically backed up by Elastic |
+| **Solutions** | Full Elastic Stack per deployment | Single solution per project |
 
+In Serverless, Elastic automatically manages:
 * Cluster scaling and optimization
 * Node management and allocation
 * Shard distribution and replication
 * Resource utilization and monitoring
-
-This fully managed approach means many traditional {{es}} infrastructure APIs and settings are not available to end users, as detailed in the following sections.
-
-
-## Index size guidelines [elasticsearch-differences-serverless-index-size]
-
-To ensure optimal performance, follow these recommendations for sizing individual indices on {{es-serverless}}:
-
-| Use case | Maximum index size | Project configuration |
+* High availability and disaster recovery strategies

+
+To ensure optimal performance in Serverless Elasticsearch projects, follow these sizing recommendations:
+
+| **Use case** | Maximum index size | Project configuration |
 | --- | --- | --- |
-| Vector search | 150GB | Vector optimized |
-| General search (non data-stream) | 300GB | General purpose |
-| Other uses (non data-stream) | 600GB | General purpose |
+| **Vector search** | 150GB | Vector optimized |
+| **General search (non data-stream)** | 300GB | General purpose |
+| **Other uses (non data-stream)** | 600GB | General purpose |
 
-For large datasets that exceed the recommended maximum size for a single index, consider splitting your data across smaller indices and using an alias to search them collectively.

-These recommendations do not apply to indices using better binary quantization (BBQ). Refer to [vector quantization](elasticsearch://reference/elasticsearch/mapping-reference/dense-vector.md#dense-vector-quantization) in the core {{es}} docs for more information.

-## Feature availability [elasticsearch-differences-serverless-feature-categories]
-
-Some features that are available in Elastic Cloud Hosted and self-managed offerings are not available in {{es-serverless}}. These features have either been replaced by a new feature, are planned to be released in future, or are not applicable in the new serverless architecture.
-
-
-### Replaced features [elasticsearch-differences-serverless-features-replaced]
-
-These features have been replaced by a new feature and are therefore not available on {{es-serverless}}:
-
-* **Index lifecycle management ({{ilm-init}})** is not available, in favor of [**data stream lifecycle**](../../../manage-data/data-store/index-basics.md).
-
-    In an Elastic Cloud Hosted or self-managed environment, {{ilm-init}} lets you automatically transition indices through data tiers according to your performance needs and retention requirements. This allows you to balance hardware costs with performance. {{es-serverless}} eliminates this complexity by optimizing your cluster performance for you.
-
-    Data stream lifecycle is an optimized lifecycle tool that lets you focus on the most common lifecycle management needs, without unnecessary hardware-centric concepts like data tiers.
-
-* **Watcher** is not available, in favor of [**Alerts**](../../../explore-analyze/alerts-cases/alerts.md#rules-alerts).
-
-    Kibana Alerts allows rich integrations across use cases like APM, metrics, security, and uptime. Prepackaged rule types simplify setup and hide the details of complex, domain-specific detections, while providing a consistent interface across Kibana.
-
-
-
-### Planned features [elasticsearch-differences-serverless-feature-planned]
-
-The following features are planned for future support in all {{serverless-full}} projects:
-
-* Reindexing from remote clusters
-* Cross-project search and replication
-* Snapshot and restore
-* Migrations from non-serverless deployments
-* Audit logging
-* Clone index API
-* Traffic filtering and VPCs
-
-### Unplanned features [elasticsearch-differences-serverless-feature-unavailable]
-
-The following features are not available in {{es-serverless}} and are not planned for future support:
-
-* [Custom plugins and bundles](/deploy-manage/deploy/elastic-cloud/upload-custom-plugins-bundles.md)
-* [{{es}} for Apache Hadoop](elasticsearch-hadoop://reference/index.md)
-* [Scripted metric aggregations](elasticsearch://reference/aggregations/search-aggregations-metrics-scripted-metric-aggregation.md)
-* Managed web crawler: You can use the [self-managed web crawler](https://github.com/elastic/crawler) instead.
-* Managed Search connectors: You can use [self-managed Search connectors](elasticsearch://reference/search-connectors/self-managed-connectors.md) instead.
