Frequently asked questions

What is the best European alternative to Elastic?
TellusR is the top-ranked European alternative to Elastic in our directory. 1 EU alternatives are listed on this page in total, scored by feature parity and relevance.
Is Elastic GDPR-compliant?
Elastic is headquartered outside the EU, which means personal data may be transferred to a non-EU jurisdiction. Since the 2020 Schrems II ruling, such transfers require a case-by-case transfer impact assessment under Article 46 GDPR. EU-based alternatives keep your data under European law by default with no transfer impact assessment required.
Why use a European alternative to Elastic?
European alternatives store data in EU jurisdictions, comply with GDPR by default, reduce exposure to the US CLOUD Act and FISA 702, and strengthen the European tech ecosystem. For regulated industries such as health, public sector, and finance, EU hosting is often a legal requirement, not just a preference.
How do I migrate from Elastic to a European alternative?
Start by exporting your data from Elastic, then pick the alternative that best matches your feature requirements; most EU alternatives listed here offer import tools or migration guides. Running both services in parallel for a week catches any edge cases before you fully switch.
