OpenSearch
Overview
OpenSearch is an enterprise-grade search and observability suite for large amounts of unstructured data. It started as a fork of Elasticsearch and is now developed under the OpenSearch Software Foundation.
What it does well
OpenSearch is a search and analytics engine built on Apache Lucene that indexes text, logs and other data at scale. It comes with a data visualisation toolset for exploring and querying data, a server-side collector for enriching and transforming data on the way in, and features for machine learning and generative AI applications. Documentation, a forum and Slack support the community.
Why it’s in the collection
OpenSearch keeps a full search and log-analytics stack under a permissive license with community governance. It's Apache-licensed.
