Deploy OpenSearch Core
👉 100% Open Source Apache 2.0 • Community Driven
OpenSearch delivers distributed full-text search, log analytics, and k-NN vector search under the Apache 2.0 license. AWS OpenSearch Service and self-hosted clusters support production deployments.
Key takeaway:
Enable k-NN vector search plugins early when building hybrid retrieval pipelines to avoid reindexing after traffic scales.
