| Fact | ClusterControl | Elastic Cloud Enterprise |
|---|---|---|
| Integrations | The installer page lists deployment through an official Helm chart, Ansible playbook, or Puppet module, and marketplace launches through DigitalOcean, gridscale, Vultr, Linode, and Google Cloud Platform. | For deployments on version 8.0 and later, users can add a combined APM Server and Fleet Server. |
| Purpose | ClusterControl is a hybrid database automation platform for automating open-source and source-available databases on-premises, in the cloud, or both. | Elastic Cloud Enterprise is a self-managed solution for deploying, orchestrating, and managing Elasticsearch clusters at scale. |
ClusterControl suits teams that need to automate database operations across on-premises, cloud, or Kubernetes environments, including teams working with its supported engines. It can also suit organizations that need offline installation or enterprise access controls and support, though those security features are listed for Enterprise.
ECE suits organizations that want to manage Elasticsearch deployments across teams or geographies, reuse on-premises infrastructure, or host sensitive data on an internal network. It may fit teams needing automated cluster management and role-based access controls.
