Inventory provides a single place to observe the status of your entire ecosystem of hosts, containers, and services at a glance, even just from logs. From there, you can monitor and understand the health of your entities, check what needs attention, and start your investigations. | ||
|
||
NOTE: The new Inventory requires the Elastic Entity Model (EEM). To learn more, refer to <<elastic-entity-model>>. | ||

|
||
Inventory is currently available for hosts, containers, and services, but it will scale to support all of your entities. | ||
|
||
The EEM currently supports the inventory experience (as identified by `host.name`, `service.name`, and `container.id`) located in data identified by the following index patterns: | ||
|
||
**Hosts** | ||
|
||
Where `host.name` is set in `metrics-*`, `logs-*`, `filebeat-*`, and `metricbeat-*` | ||
|
||
**Services** | ||
|
||
Where `service.name` is set in `filebeat*`, `logs-*`, `metrics-apm.service_transaction.1m*`, and `metrics-apm.service_summary.1m*` | ||
|
||
**Containers** | ||
|
||
Where `container.id` is set in `metrics-*`, `logs-*`, `filebeat-*`, and `metricbeat-*` | ||
|
||
Inventory allows you to: | ||
|
||
- Filter for your entities to provide a high-level view of what you have leveraging your own tags and labels | ||
- Drill down into any host, container, or service to help you understand performance | ||
- Debug resource bottlenecks with your service caused by their containers and the hosts they run on. | ||
- Easily discover all entities related to the host, container or service you are viewing by leveraging your tags and labels | ||

[[explore-your-entities]] | ||
== Explore your entities | ||
|
||
. In your Observability project, go to **Inventory** to view all of your entities. | ||
+ | ||
When you open the Inventory for the first time, you'll be asked to enable the EEM. Once enabled, the Inventory will be accessible to anyone with the appropriate privileges. | ||
+ | ||
NOTE: The Inventory feature can be completely disabled using the `observability:entityCentricExperience` flag in **Stack Management**. | ||
|
||
. In the search bar, search for your entities by name or type, for example `entity.type:service`. | ||
|
||
For each entity, you can click the entity name and get a detailed view. For example, for an entity of type service, you get the following details: | ||
|
||
- Overview | ||
- Transactions | ||
- Dependencies | ||
- Errors | ||
- Metrics | ||
- Infrastructure | ||
- Service Map | ||
- Logs | ||
- Alerts | ||
- Dashboards | ||
|

|
||
If you open an entity of type `host` or `container` that does not have infrastructure data, some of the visualizations will be blank and some features on the page will not be fully populated. | ||

[[add-entities-to-inventory]] | ||
== Add entities to the Inventory | ||
|
||
You can add entities to the Inventory through one of the following approaches: **Add data** or **Associate existing service logs**. | ||
|
||
[float] | ||
[[add-data-entities]] | ||
== Add data | ||
|
||
To add entities, select **Add data** from the left-hand navigation and choose one of the following onboarding journeys: | ||
|
||
- **Auto-detect logs and metrics** | ||
Detects hosts (with metrics and logs) | ||
|
||
- **Kubernetes** | ||
Detects hosts, containers, and services | ||
|
||
- **Elastic APM / OpenTelemetry / Synthetic Monitor** | ||
Detects services | ||
Associate existing service logs | ||
|
||
To learn how, refer to <<add-logs-service-name>>. |
