What’s Elasticsearch?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Elasticsearch is the fastest search engine that returns the results for the entered query in real-time. Elasticsearch is actually a highly scalable open-source full-text search and analytics engine. \u00a0It allows you to store, search, and analyze big volumes of data quickly and in near real time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Are you running an online web store where you are allowing your customers to search for products that you sell? If yes, you can use Elasticsearch to store your entire product catalog on the server where you have installed the Elasticsearch and provide search and autocomplete suggestions for the customers of your store.<\/p>\n

Suppose, that we are searching a word “Apple” on our local SQL\u00a0database. It will surely be a time-consuming process as all the data will be checked through for finding the word “Apple”. But, if we make use of the Elasticsearch and put all of our catalog data in the Elasticsearch server it would for sure return us with the IDs’ of the products having the “Apple” word associated with them. Thus narrowing-down the search results for us and in turn\u00a0providing faster search results.<\/p>\n

If you are already using Magento Elasticsearch extension and you want to improve the sales of your online web store then you can upgrade to Magento 2 Elastic Search Extension<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
