## Regions where AutoOps is available

Depending on your deployment type, AutoOps has been rolled out across various [regions](https://www.elastic.co/elastic/docs-builder/docs/2865/deploy-manage/monitor/autoops/ec-autoops-regions). More regions and CSPs are coming soon.

## Deployment types where AutoOps is available

AutoOps is automatically available in [Elastic Cloud Hosted deployments](https://www.elastic.co/elastic/docs-builder/docs/2865/deploy-manage/monitor/autoops/ec-autoops-how-to-access) and [Elastic Cloud Serverless projects](https://www.elastic.co/elastic/docs-builder/docs/2865/deploy-manage/monitor/autoops/autoops-for-serverless), and can be set up for [ECE, ECK, and self-managed clusters](https://www.elastic.co/elastic/docs-builder/docs/2865/deploy-manage/monitor/autoops/cc-autoops-as-cloud-connected) through Cloud Connect.
AutoOps is currently not available for air-gapped environments because it's a cloud service and you need an internet connection to send metrics to Elastic Cloud. However, we plan to offer a locally deployable version in the future.

## How AutoOps is licensed

AutoOps is available for free across all subscription levels in Elastic Cloud Hosted deployments and Serverless projects.
New: AutoOps is now also available for free across all [self-managed license types](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions) in ECE, ECK, and self-managed clusters.
Using AutoOps does not consume ECUs.

## How long AutoOps retains data

AutoOps currently has a 10 day retention period.

## What AutoOps monitors

AutoOps currently only monitors Elasticsearch, not the entire Elastic Stack. AutoOps is compatible with [supported Elasticsearch versions](https://www.elastic.co/support/eol)(7.17.x and above). We plan to expand AutoOps monitoring to the entire stack in the future.
