## Amazon Elasticsearch Service
AWS users using Amazon's Elasticsearch Service can use Grafana's Elasticsearch data source to visualize Elasticsearch data.
If you are using an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policy to control access to your Amazon Elasticsearch Service domain, then you must use AWS Signature Version 4 (AWS SigV4) to sign all requests to that domain.
For more details on AWS SigV4, refer to the [AWS documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/signature-version-4.html).
### AWS Signature Version 4 authentication
> **Note:** Only available in Grafana v7.3+.
In order to sign requests to your Amazon Elasticsearch Service domain, SigV4 can be enabled in the Grafana [configuration]({{< relref "../administration/configuration.md#sigv4_auth_enabled" >}}).
Once AWS SigV4 is enabled, it can be configured on the Elasticsearch data source configuration page. Refer to [Cloudwatch authentication]({{<relref "./cloudwatch.md#authentication" >}}) for more information about authentication options.
