Elasticsearch is based on Lucene and the data is stored in
whatever format Lucene uses. This isn't something you have
to care about.

Using the regular query APIs. Sorry for such a general answer
but your question is very general.

It's free Apache-licensed software so you don't have to pay
anything. If you feel you need a support contract that's
being offered at a couple of different levels. I'm sure there
are third parties offering similar services.

If you want the whole stack from log collection to storage
to visualization then yes, you need all three. But apart
from a dependency from Kibana to Elasticsearch the tools
are independent.
I suggest you download them and try them out. That's the
quickest way to figure out whether the tool stack (or a subset
thereof) fits your needs. There are also a number of videos
available.
