At Elastic, we are always focused on improving performance and cost efficiency for our customers running observability, security, and search workloads on Elastic Cloud Hosted. We are excited to introduce a new **CPU-optimized (Arm)** hardware profile powered by Axion — Google’s custom-designed, Arm-based processors.
This new Arm-based hardware profile brings the next generation of Google Cloud compute to Elastic Cloud Hosted.
The **CPU-optimized (Arm)** hardware profile delivers **up to 25% better price-performance** compared to the previous CPU-optimized generation, making it ideal for CPU-bound, indexing-heavy, and query-intensive workloads.
Customers benefit from improved compute efficiency, faster data processing, and more cost-effective scaling across search, observability, and security workloads — all without changing how they build or operate on Elastic Cloud Hosted.
This hardware profile is available in select Google Cloud regions. For the most up-to-date list of supported regions, refer to our regional availability documentation.
How to create a deployment using Arm hardware profiles
Creating a new deployment with the CPU-optimized (ARM) hardware profile is straightforward.

1. In theElastic Cloud console, start creating a new deployment by selecting a solution view (Elasticsearch, Elastic Observability, or Elastic Security) for your deployment and then select**Google Cloud**as your cloud provider.
2. When choosing the hardware profile, select**CPU-optimized (Arm)**. More information on our hardware profiles and configurations can be found in ourdocumentation.
3. Once selected, continue with your usual configuration steps and create the deployment.
Elastic Cloud will automatically provision the deployment powered by Google Axion (Arm) instances.
How to migrate an existing deployment to Arm hardware profiles
Migrating an existing deployment to Arm hardware profiles is simple.

1. From the Elastic Cloud console, click on an existing deployment that has been created.
2. On the deployment overview page next to your current hardware profile, select**Edit**.
3. Select the**CPU-optimized (Arm)**hardware profile.
4. Preview the changes for the new hardware profile.
5. Click**Update**, then confirm the changes to migrate to the new hardware profile.
That’s it! Visit ourdocumentationfor more details.
