Case Study: eBay achieves scalable search at massive data volume with Elastic

Ebay - Customer Case Study

eBay faced the challenge of managing massive and rapidly growing data at a scale far beyond “small data,” with millions of sellers, 162 million active buyers, and 800 million listings. To power search across the business, eBay adopted Elastic’s Elasticsearch and later became an Elastic subscription customer to help support and scale its deployment.

Elastic helped eBay expand and fine-tune its Elasticsearch environment with dedicated support expertise, enabling the company to grow to 18–19 clusters while meeting strict SLAs for tier-1 customers. The measurable impact was improved scalability and faster issue resolution, helping eBay keep its search infrastructure reliable as demand increased.
