Case Study: Swedish Public Employment Service achieves faster innovation and lower costs with Elastic

Swedish Public Employment Service brings job seekers and employers together with Elastic

Swedish Public Employment Service, known as Arbetsförmedlingen, needed to modernize its observability, search, and APM tools to replace outdated, multi-vendor systems that were slow, costly, and hard to scale. Working with Elastic, it looked for a more flexible platform to support job matching, recruitment services, and growing IT demands across its organization.

Elastic implemented Elastic Observability, Elasticsearch, and Elastic Cloud Enterprise to consolidate logging, monitoring, and search on a scalable on-premises platform. The results included faster troubleshooting and software delivery, automated checks that saved man hours, and a 75% reduction in storage costs, while supporting about 800 systems and applications across production and test environments.
