Disjunctive queries (term_1 OR term_2 OR... OR term_n) are extremely commonly used, thus they are getting a lot of attention when it comes to improving query evaluation efficiency. Apache Lucene has two main optimizations for evaluating disjunctive queries: BS1 on the one hand for exhaustive evaluation, and MAXSCORE and WAND on the other hand to compute top hits.
In the fast-paced universe of software development, especially in the cloud-native realm, DevOps and SRE teams are increasingly emerging as essential partners in application stability and growth. DevOps engineers continuously optimize software delivery, while SRE teams act as the stewards of application reliability, scalability, and top-tier performance. The challenge?

Elastic Cloud Observability is the premiere tool to provide visibility into your running web apps. Google Cloud Run is the serverless platform of choice to run your web apps that need to scale up massively and scale down to zero. Elastic Observability combined with Google Cloud Run is the perfect solution for developers to deploy web apps that are auto-scaled with fully observable operations, in a way that’s straightforward to implement and manage.
Vector search is a powerful tool in the information retrieval tool box. Using vectors alongside lexical search like BM25 is quickly becoming commonplace. But there are still a few pain points within vector search that need to be addressed. A major one is text embedding models and handling larger text input.

“When you peel back business issues, more times than not, you will find that the root cause is directly tied to data problems,” says Matthew Minetola, CIO at Elastic®. In today's world, all companies, new and old, are awash in data from multiple sources — stored in multiple systems, versions, and formats — and it’s getting worse all the time.
Application performance monitoring (APM) is much more than capturing and tracking errors and stack traces. Today’s cloud-based businesses deploy applications across various regions and even cloud providers. So, harnessing the power of metadata provided by the Elastic APM agents becomes more critical. Leveraging the metadata, including crucial information like cloud region, provider, and machine type, allows us to track costs across the application stack.
In previous blogs, we explored how Elastic Observability can help you monitor various AWS services and analyze them effectively: One of the more heavily used AWS container services is Amazon ECS (Elastic Container Service). While there is a trend toward using Fargate to simplify the setup and management of ECS clusters, many users still prefer using Amazon ECS with EC2 instances.
As we navigate our fast-paced digital era, organizations across various industries are in constant pursuit of strategies for efficient monitoring, performance tuning, and continuous improvement of their services. Elastic® and Kyndryl have come together to offer a solution for Mainframe Observability, engineered with an emphasis on organizations that are heavily reliant on mainframes, including the financial services industry (FSI), healthcare, retail, and manufacturing sectors.
