Hi,

The installation of the Elastic database does not require a DMA ID. Elastic can be installed on the same machine as where DataMiner is installed, or on a separate machine. It's recommended to install it on a separate Linux machine for production environments.

Only the installation of DataMiner requires a DMA ID.

PS: you can also look at DatMiner StaaS instead of Elastic in the short future: DataMiner STaaS: a game-changer for your storage needs - DataMiner Dojo
