AWS Elasticsearch VPC connectivity
After much trial and error, I found the URL generated by ES is internal and cannot be opened to the internet easily via security groups.
Instead, I deployed an simple nginx proxy which forwarded public DNS requests eg es.mydns.com to the internal DNS eg vpc....eu-central-1.es.amazonaws.com/_plugin/kibana/
VPC Endpoint cannot be accessed outside the subnets that you associated with the elastic-search domain.
you can try performing curl from any EC2 instances that is part of the same subnet that you associated with elastic-search, it should work.
If you need to access the endpoint from internet, then don't create VPC endpoint elastic-search instead create elastic-search domain with internet access. You can specify whether you want VPC or internet accessible cluster when creating the ES domain.
Steps to access elastic search VPC
- Create ec2 environment in AWS.
- Install ngnix in ec2 and configure.
- Add two inbound request in security group i.e. all traffic andssh.
- Then use public ip to access from internet.
