Overview

OpenSearch High-performance Search Edition is a one-stop platform used to develop intelligent search services. It is built based on the large-scale distributed search engine developed by Alibaba.

Architecture

SaaS platform: You can interact with the system by using the console or by calling API operations.

Scenario-based configuration: You need to only create an application and configure the data source, fields, and search attributes. After the reindexing is complete, you can test the search performance by using the SDK or in the console.

Big data search: Compared with Industry Algorithm Edition, High-performance Search Edition eliminates the complex industry algorithm capabilities and focuses on the throughput of business queries and writes based on the support for common search capabilities, such as analyzers and sorting. High-performance Search Edition provides the capabilities to respond within seconds and query in real time in scenarios where queries are performed on large data sets.

SQL syntax: High-performance Search Edition allows you to join tables online.

Features

High throughput

A single table supports tens of thousands of write transactions per second (TPS).

Security and stability

O&M services are available on a 24/7 basis. You can get technical support by submitting tickets online or making phone calls. A series of comprehensive fault emergency response mechanisms are delivered, such as fault monitoring, automatic alerting, and fast troubleshooting. Alibaba Cloud assigns AccessKey IDs and AccessKey secrets to users to control permissions to access OpenSearch. This ensures data security by isolating data of different users.

Auto scaling

The auto scaling capability allows you to scale up or down the resources based on your business requirements.

Out-of-the-box service

You do not need to deploy or perform O&M operations on clusters before you access OpenSearch.

SQL query

High-performance Search Edition allows you to use the SQL syntax and join tables online and provides a variety of built-in UDFs and function customization mechanisms to meet different requirements for data retrieval. To facilitate SQL testing, the SQL query feature is provided in the O&M system of High-performance Search Edition.
