ABOUT ELASTICSEARCH

Elasticsearch is an open source (Apache 2 license), distributed, a RESTful search engine built on top of the Apache Lucene library.

Elasticsearch was introduced a few years after Solr. It offers a distributed, multitenant-capable, full-text search engine with an HTTP web interface (REST) and schema-free JSON documents. The official client libraries for Elasticsearch are available in Java, Groovy, PHP, Ruby, Perl, Python, .NET, and Javascript.

The distributed search engine includes indices that can be divided into shards, and each shard can have multiple replicas. Each Elasticsearch node can have one or more shards, and its engine also acts as a coordinator to delegate operations to the correct shard(s).

Elasticsearch is scalable with near real-time search. One of its key features is multi-tenancy.

The major feature list includes:
- Distributed search
- Multi-tenancy
- An analyzer chain
- Analytical search
- Grouping & aggregation
