Elasticsearch, an open-source full-text search engine, allows users to store and analyze data in near real-time, making it a scalable and customizable solution. Users can set up their own Elasticsearch cluster using various methods and create indexes to store documents. The system offers advanced searching capabilities, including filtering data with Elasticsearch's full-text search feature. Additionally, Elasticsearch provides Snapshot Lifecycle Management (SLM), which allows users to automate backups of their data by creating repositories for snapshots. Users can also utilize Kibana, a visualization tool that enables intuitive searches and visualizations of data. With SLM, users can customize how their data is backed up throughout and within a cluster, ensuring the security and integrity of their data.
