- 18. Elasticsearch core • Apache Lucene is a high-performance, full-featured text search engine library written entirely in Java • Elasticsearch added value: “Simple is best” • Simple API (with documentation) • JSON & RESTful • Sharding & Replication • Extensibility: plugins and scripts • Interoperability: clients and integrations
- 19. Terms for DBAs • Index • Type • Document • Fields • Mapping ElasticsearchRDBMs • Database • Table • Row • Column • Schema
- 20. Plug & Play • Zero configuration • 4 LoC to get started ;)
- 22. REST • Check your cluster, node, and index health, status, and statistics • Administer your cluster, node, and index data and metadata • Perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, and Delete) and search operations against your indexes • Execute advanced search operations such as paging, sorting, filtering, scripting, faceting, aggregations, and many others
- 23. Basic Operations 1/3 • Add a document • Create index
- 24. Basic Operations 2/3 • Modify/Replace a document • Delete a document • Delete index
- 25. Basic Operations 3/3 • Update a document
- 26. Mapping 1/2 • Define how a document should be mapped (similar to schema): searchable fields, tokenization, storage, .. • Explicit mapping is defined on an index/type level • A default mapping is automatically created
- 27. Mapping 2/2 • Core types: string, integer/long, float/double, boolean, and null • Other types:Array, Object, Nested, IP, GeoPoint, GeoShape, Attachment • Example
- 28. Search API 1/2 • Multi-index, Multi-type • Uri search - Google like Operators (AND/OR), fields, sort, paging, wildcards, …
- 29. Search API 2/2 • Paging & Sort • Fields: selection, scripts • Post filter • Highlighting • Rescoring • Explain • …
- 30. Query DSL • “SQL” for elasticsearch • Queries should be used • for full text search • where the result depends on a relevance score • Filters should be used • for binary yes/no searches • for queries on exact values
- 31. Basic Queries
- 32. Basic Filters
- 33. Analysis 1/2 • Analysis is extracting “terms” from a given text • Processing natural language to make it computer searchable • Configurable registry of Analyzers that can be used • to break indexed (analyzed) fields when a document is indexed • to process query strings
- 34. Analysis 2/2 • Analyzers are composed of • a singleTokenizer (may be preceded by one or more CharFilters) • zero or moreTokenFilters • Default Analyzers standard, pattern, whitespace, language, snowball

- 36. Analytics • Aggregation of information: similar to “group by” • Facets • Aggregated data based on a search query • One-dimensional results • Ex:“term facets” return facetcounts for various values for a specific field Think color, tag, category, … • Aggregations (ES 1.0+) • Nested Facets • Basic Stats: mean, min, max, std dev, term counts • SignificantTerms, Percentiles, Cardinality estimations
- 37. Facets • not yet deprecated, but use aggregations! • Various Facets terms, range, histogram, date, statistical, geo distance, …
- 38. Aggregations • A generic powerful framework that can be divided into 2 main families: • Bucketing Each bucket is associated with a key and a document criterion The aggregation process provides a list of buckets - each one with a set of documents that "belong" to it. • Metric Aggregations that keep track and compute metrics over a set of documents. • Aggregations can be nested !
- 39. Bucket Aggregators • global • filter • missing • terms • range • date range • ip range • histogram • date histogram • geo distance • geohash grid • nested • reverse nested • top hits (version 1.3)
- 40. Metrics Aggregators • count • stats • extended stats • cardinality • percentiles • min • max • sum • avg
- 41. Search for end users • Suggesters - “Did you mean” Terms, Phrases, Completion, Context • “More like this” Find documents that are "like" provided text by running it against one or more fields
- 42. Percolator • Classic ES 1. Add & Index documents 2. Search with queries 3. Retrieve matching documents • Percolator 1. Add & Index queries 2. Percolate documents 3. Retrieve matching queries
- 43. Why Percolate ?! • Alerts: social media mentions, weather forecast, news alerts • Automatic Monitoring: price monitoring, stock alerts, logs • Ads: display targeted ads based on user’s search queries • Enrich: percolate new documents, then add query matches as document tags
- 44. High Availability 1/2 • Sharding - Write Scalability • Split logical data over multiple machines & Control data flows • Each index has a fixed number of shards • Improve indexing performance • Replication - Read Scalability • Each shard can have 0-many replicas (dynamic setup) • Removing SPOF (Single Point Of Failure) • Improve search performance
- 45. High Availability 2/2 • Zen Discovery • Automatic discovery of nodes within a cluster and electing a master node • Useful for failover and replication • Specific modules:Amazon EC2, Microsoft Azure, Google Compute Engine • Snapshot & Restore module
