WebCenter Content / Do You Know
August 6, 2020
Elastic Search is Now Available for Use with WebCenter Content 12.2.1.4.0
There has been quite a bit of Buzz about Elastic Search and when WebCenter Content will use it. Rest easy... that day has arrived! What's "Elastic Search?" Glad you asked! In a nutshell, Elastic Search uses a file system based index, and is an alternative to managing your search index in a Database. It lends itself well to large repositories (+1M content items).
Elasticsearch is a distributed, open source search and analytics engine for all types of data, including textual, numerical, geospatial, structured, and unstructured. Elasticsearch is built on Apache Lucene and was first released in 2010 by Elasticsearch N.V. (now known as Elastic).
