Elastic Enterprise Search 8.6: Reduce time to relevant search results - for file systems, MongoDB, and Amazon S3

Elastic Enterprise Search 8.6 enables customers to index searchable content on file systems, network drives, MongoDB, and Amazon S3. With new connectors for network drives and Amazon S3, content indexed can easily be transformed for natural language processing (NLP) use cases with intuitive tooling to test and tune your search experience with the trained model of your choice.

Perf8: Performance metrics for Python

One tool for all your Python performance tracking needs We're building this neat service in Python to ingest data in Elasticsearch from various sources (MySQL, Network Drive, AWS, etc.) for Enterprise Search. Sucking data from a third-party service to Elasticsearch is usually an I/O-bound activity. Your code sits on opened sockets and passes data from one end to the other. That's a great use case for an asynchronous application in Python, but it needs to be carefully crafted.

Log monitoring and unstructured log data, moving beyond tail -f

Log files and system logs have been a treasure trove of information for administrators and developers for decades. But with more moving parts and ever more options on where to run modern cloud applications, keeping an eye on logs and troubleshooting problems have become increasingly difficult.

Modern observability and security on Kubernetes with Elastic and OpenTelemetry

The structured nature of Kubernetes enables a repeatable and scalable means of deploying and managing services and applications. This has led to widespread adoption across market verticals for both on-premises and cloud deployment models. The autonomous nature of Kubernetes operation, however, demands comprehensive, fully-converged observability and security. This is uniquely possible today using the Elastic platform.

How Universal Profiling unwinds stacks without frame pointers and symbols

Elastic Universal Profiling is based on technology that came into Elastic as part of the acquisition of optimyze.cloud — a startup that had developed Prodfiler.com, the world’s first frictionless fleet-wide in-production multi-runtime profiler that was launched in August 2021. In order to bring the vision of frictionless deployability, low performance overhead, “just run it everywhere” magic to the broader market, a number of technical innovations were necessary.

Wait... Elastic Observability monitors metrics for AWS services in just minutes?

The transition to distributed applications is in full swing, driven mainly by our need to be “always-on” as consumers and fast-paced businesses. That need is driving deployments to have more complex requirements along with the ability to be globally diverse and rapidly innovate.

How to build scoped search suggestions and search query corrections

You get one shot to keep shoppers on your ecommerce website with relevant search results. According to Harris Poll, 76% of online shoppers abandon a retail website after an unsuccessful search. Therefore, it’s critical to optimize your search experience so buyers can find what they need fast. That’s the theory behind a modern search experience: Nowadays it’s not enough to simply provide a search bar that returns matching products.

Independence with OpenTelemetry on Elastic

The drive for faster, more scalable services is on the rise. Our day-to-day lives depend on apps, from a food delivery app to have your favorite meal delivered, to your banking app to manage your accounts, to even apps to schedule doctor’s appointments. These apps need to be able to grow from not only a features standpoint but also in terms of user capacity. The scale and need for global reach drives increasing complexity for these high-demand cloud applications.
