What is Elasticsearch?

Elastic 9.4 pushes into observability metrics and AI orchestration on a single release.

Elastic Stack is shipping on four maintenance lines (8.19, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4) with the 9.4 minor as the active feature train. The 9.4 release lands native Prometheus and PromQL support, promotes Workflows to GA, and expands the Agent Builder. The 8.19 and 9.2/9.3 lines are receiving routine backport bugfix releases in parallel.

What is ToolJet?

ToolJet ships AI Builder release 4 to its LTS line, with Gemini 4 Argon support.

ToolJet's LTS v3.20.250 brings AI Builder release 4 into the enterprise edition, with cancellation handling and Gemini 4 Argon as a model option; v3.20.248 added workspace MCP OAuth with SSO login. The beta line spent the week on Node 22.23.4 for the October security release, file-permission and license-check fixes, a page-panel crash fix, and an environment flag that limits ToolJet Database edits to admins.

6.3

Elastic 9.4 pushes into observability metrics and AI orchestration on a single release.

◆ Current state

Elastic Stack is shipping on four maintenance lines (8.19, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4) with the 9.4 minor as the active feature train. The 9.4 release lands native Prometheus and PromQL support, promotes Workflows to GA, and expands the Agent Builder. The 8.19 and 9.2/9.3 lines are receiving routine backport bugfix releases in parallel.

◆ Where it's heading

Two narratives run simultaneously: observability expansion via first-class Prometheus compatibility and TSDB work, and AI-platform expansion via Workflows GA and Agent Builder. Both push Elastic past 'search engine' framing — observability into Grafana/Mimir/Datadog territory, AI into the retrieval-and-orchestration layer for agentic systems.

◆ Prediction

Expect 9.5 to deepen Workflows orchestration primitives and broaden PromQL semantic coverage, with backport churn on 8.19 continuing as the long-tail LTS. Agent Builder will likely pick up evaluation and observability features to compete more directly with LangChain/LangGraph-style tooling.

5.0

ToolJet ships AI Builder release 4 to its LTS line, with Gemini 4 Argon support.

◆ Current state

ToolJet's LTS v3.20.250 brings AI Builder release 4 into the enterprise edition, with cancellation handling and Gemini 4 Argon as a model option; v3.20.248 added workspace MCP OAuth with SSO login. The beta line spent the week on Node 22.23.4 for the October security release, file-permission and license-check fixes, a page-panel crash fix, and an environment flag that limits ToolJet Database edits to admins.

◆ Where it's heading

The AI Builder work that sat in beta is now reaching LTS customers, alongside MCP connections that respect SSO. Most other changes on both lines are security bumps and hardening, which fits a product selling to enterprises that run the LTS track.

◆ Prediction

Expect AI Builder to keep adding models and EE controls on LTS, and more admin-level permission flags like the database-edit restriction.
