The search index (SearchIndex) of Lindorm is primarily used for complex multi-dimensional query scenarios. This topic describes how to enable the search index.

Precautions

Before you enable the search index service, you need to carefully evaluate the resource capacity of your instance. For resource planning guidance, see Cluster Capacity Planning.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Lindorm console.

  2. In the upper-left corner of the page, select the region where the instance is deployed.

  3. On the Instances page, click the ID of the target instance or click View Instance Details in the Actions column for the instance.

  4. In the left-side navigation pane, click Wide Table Engine.

  5. Click the SearchIndex tab.

  6. Click Activate Now.

  7. On the Upgrade/Downgrade page, configure the following parameters.

    Important

    The search index feature requires Lindorm Tunnel Service (LTS). Therefore, you must also activate LTS when enabling the search index.

    Parameter

    Description

    Search Node Specification (Solr API)

    Note

    If you activated LindormSearch when you purchased the Lindorm instance, you do not need to configure this parameter.

    We recommend selecting a high-performance node specification. For example, a specification of 16 vCores and 64 GB of memory can typically handle a query QPS of over 500 and a write TPS of over 50,000.

    Number of Search Nodes

    Note

    If you activated LindormSearch when you purchased the Lindorm instance, you do not need to configure this parameter.

    We recommend selecting at least two nodes to prevent a single point of failure. The number of nodes can range from 0 to 60.

    LTS Data Sync Core Specification

    Note

    If you have already enabled the backup and recovery or change tracking feature, you do not need to configure this parameter.

    We recommend selecting the 4 vCores and 16 GB specification. You can scale up or scale out the LTS data sync service later based on your business requirements.

    Number of LTS Nodes

    Note

    If you have already enabled the backup and recovery or change tracking feature, you do not need to configure this parameter.

    We recommend selecting two LTS nodes. The number of LTS nodes can range from 0 to 50.

    Storage Space

    The storage capacity for the LindormSearch service.

    Note

    If you activated LindormSearch when you purchased the Lindorm instance, you do not need to configure this parameter.

  8. Read and select the checkbox to agree to the terms of service.

  9. Click Buy Now.

Related operations

The LTS service purchased through a search index has the same functionality as a separately purchased LTS instance. For more information, see Purchase differences.
