First: Craft's full-text search based on the underlying database is powerful and the very best choice for the vast majority of users.

At some point, however, you can run into trouble with full-text search for a variety of reasons, such as when the number of elements can no longer be handled well. Installations with several million Craft elements then require disproportionately large database infrastructure. And for that, there are specialists. Like Elasticsearch.

This plugin replaces Craft's internal full-text search with Elasticsearch and can be replaced seamlessly. Tooling assists with the migration.

The prerequisite is an existing Elasticsearch installation.

Note: The plugin is not feature complete for all search syntaxes of Craft. Please check the supported syntaxes.
