Elasticsearch Support & Optimization

Once you have your Elasticsearch running, you’ll eventually want to adjust your system for growth, change sharding settings, or increase the search speed. Whatever the reason behind optimization, with the right tech expertise, Elasticsearch is flexible for all of these tasks.
We can help you get better Elasticsearch performance for specific search purposes and save costs on resources your Elasticsearch infrastructure uses.

Infrastructure Setup &
Performance Tuning

We'll start with the analysis of tech resources you use to run your clusters in terms of computing, memory, storage, and network. Then, we move to optimization of the cluster configuration and index configuration to improve the latency of queries.
Our further steps will depend on the goals you aim to achieve with the Elasticsearch optimization, as well as what hardware sources you're running it on.

Elasticsearch Monitoring

The monitoring of the internal behavior of Elasticsearch will help us discover the cost-saving opportunities available. The key metrics to track:

Search query performance
Indexing performance
Node & cluster health
Heap utilization

We'll also monitor Elasticseacrh for search load picks and set up autoscaling in periods of high loads.

Upgrading Elasticsearch

It is important to aim for the latest Elasticsearch solutions as apart from the new features released, the latest versions usually include a significant performance boost. Because each of the products in your Elastic Stack should be upgraded separately and the upgrading process should be invisible to your users, this process usually gets tricky.
We have experience in upgrading Elasticsearch to different versions. Depending on your current Elasticsearch cluster, we will offer you an optimal upgrading scenario to the desired version you can upgrade to with minimum risks.

How
We approach site search integration

Diving deeply into your business specifics, we'll apply proven methods for relevant Elasticsearch search performance and ensure the relevance of the search results.

Discovery

We will investigate your internal search use case, business requirements, and KPIs you would like to put forward. We can discuss details over the call with your technical team and stakeholders.

Technical audit

Query audit to define the most popular queries, search relevance threshold, mapping verification, data on specific queries.

Hardware compatibility analysis for computing, memory, storage, network utilization to identify issues influencing performance.

Traffic analysis to define search queries quantitative characteristics and Elasticsearch use within different time periods.

Strategy

Depending on the findings from the Discovery and Technical audit steps we'll provide you with the Elasticsearch capacity planning and integration/optimization strategy. We'll create a roadmap for the project and create a prioritized backlog with further improvements.

Development

The Wise team can work with any type of data: unstructured, structured, geodata, numbers, or text. We'll ensure efficient ingestion, enrichment, normalization, and indexing of your content. Our services include architecture design, implementation, optimization, scaling, preventative maintenance, and troubleshooting.

A/B testing

With search analytics, you'll be able to evaluate and detect the winning search experiences. You'll learn from your site search data, make data-driven decisions, and adjust your business processes accordingly.

Long-term support

When the core work on Elasticsearch integration or optimization is done, we are happy to continue our collaboration and make sure your site search is up and running as your business continues to scale.

Why us?

We add predictive, fast, and dynamic site search for companies located worldwide. Our team will make sure your search is smart enough to deliver what your users are really looking for on your website or online store.

We have the Elastic expertise

Elasticsearch is a powerful search engine, however, it still needs engineering directions for best performance. We have 10+ years of experience in implementing Elasticsearch for various tasks. We help our clients follow best practices for Elasticsearch configuration, optimization, and effectiveness.

We work on complex projects

One of our projects had the challenge to process and import 20M documents a day. To address it, we set up a database cluster that held over 15TB of data on 21 nodes and was split across to 800 shards. This helped the client to achieve >5K full-text search requests per second.

We align tech and business goals

While we deal with the tech aspects to get your cluster fast and accurate, we always keep your company's objectives and key performance indicators in mind. The Wise team provides consulting, coaching, and implementation services to help you maximize return on investment and scale your business wisely.

We encourage open communication

It is never a project-manager-to-client dialogue but rather a team-to-client continuous conversation. You can contact anyone from the Wise team directly. We implement a dynamic methodology to communication processes. For us, it is a key to a successful collaboration.
