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.

When we created Cribl Search, we wanted to give systems administrators the ability to query data without having to spend resources on collection and processing first — but we didn’t stop there. With Search, we’re also making it possible to query all the data you’ve already collected, processed, and kept in places like object stores, file systems, analytics tools, S3 buckets, or other data stores.

One of the most useful features of Cribl’s flagship solution Stream is its ability to separate the wheat from the chaff in your data’s journey from source to destination — Stream allows you to control what data goes to what system, Cribl Search, takes this to the next level by controlling what data should be collected before it is ever put in motion.

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.

The answer to the second question must be a resounding no.

OpenSearch was created by the community for the community to continue to keep an open-source alternative to ElasticSearch and Kibana. The project has been hard at work for the last 1.5 years building, launching and iterating on this important initiative. Some remarkable milestones have been achieved, including over 5,800 stars on GitHub with 19 different community-led projects.
