In this talk I would like to show you a few real-life use-cases where Elasticsearch can enhance the user experience of your applications. We will start with the most basic use case with a seemingly simple problem of searching for articles by author and move on to more advanced topics such as faceted navigation and structured search.
I would like to demonstrate that the very same tool and data can be used for real-time analytics (topic distribution, publishing frequency, most popular or commented on content) and data mining in a distributed environment capable of handling terabyte-sized datasets.
Finally we will demonstrate how Elasticsearch can provide the infrastructure for features beyond search, such as automatic content categorization, user-defined categories or even real-time alerts.
Attendees should walk away with a good understanding of what Elasticsearch can bring them and where it is a good fit.
