Transcript

1. Elasticsearch in action By Thijs Feryn
2. Explain in 1 slide
3. •Full-text search engine •NoSQL database •Analytics engine •Written in Java •Lucene based ( ~Solr) •Inverted indices •Easy to scale (~Elastic) •RESTFul interface (HTTP/JSON) •Schemaless •Real-time •ELK stack
4. Still with me?
5. Hi, I’m Thijs
6. I’m @ThijsFeryn on Twitter
7. I’m an Evangelist At
9. Bonjour
10. https://www.elastic.co/ downloads/elasticsearch
11. { "cluster_name": "elasticsearch", "cluster_uuid": "KKD4RjtCTTWoRomBDXyCDA", "name": "y3qufp6", "tagline": "You Know, for Search", "version": { "build_date": "2017-02-09T22:05:32.386Z", "build_hash": "db0d481", "build_snapshot": false, "lucene_version": "6.4.1", "number": "5.2.1" } } http://localhost: 9200
12. RDBMS Elasticsearch Database Table Row Index Type Document
13. Contains 5.x syntax, not the old 2.x syntax !
14. PUT /blog { "acknowledged": true, "shards_acknowledged": true }
15. POST/blog/post/6576 { "language":"en", "title":"Combell revamps its hosting range: fewer packages, more features!", "date":"Thu, 08 Dec 2016 15:35:59 +0000", "author":"Combell", "category":[ "Combell news", "Hosting", "Combell", "hosting" ], "guid":"6576" }
16. { "_index": "blog", "_type": "post", "_id": "6576", "_version": 1, "result": "created", "_shards": { "total": 2, "successful": 1, "failed": 0 }, "created": true } Confirmation
17. GET /blog/post/6576 { "_index": "blog", "_type": "post", "_id": "6576", "_version": 1, "found": true, "_source": { "language": "en", "title": "Combell revamps its hosting range: fewer packages, more features!", "date": "Thu, 08 Dec 2016 15:35:59 +0000", "author": "Combell", "category": [ "Combell news", "Hosting", "Combell", "hosting" ], "guid": "6576" } } Retrieve document by id Document & meta data
18. GET /blog/_mapping { "blogger": { "mappings": { "post": { "properties": { "author": { "type": "text", "fields": { "keyword": { "type": "keyword", "ignore_above": 256 } } }, "category": { "type": "text", "fields": { "keyword": { "type": "keyword", "ignore_above": 256 } } }, "date": { "type": "text", "fields": { "keyword": { "type": "keyword", "ignore_above": 256 } } }, "guid": { "type": "text", "fields": { "keyword": { "type": "keyword", "ignore_above": 256 Schemaless? Not really … “Guesses” mapping on insert
19. String types ✓Text analyzed ✓Keyword non-analyzed ✓String • Analyzed • Extra non-analyzed keyword field • Deprecated
20. 0 hits, analyzed data POST /blog/_search { "_source": "date", "query": { "wildcard": { "date": { "value": "*11:50*" } } } } POST /blog/_search { "_source": "date", "query": { "wildcard": { "date.keyword": { "value": "*11:50*" } } } } 2 hits, non-analyzed data
21. Explicit mapping
22. PUT /blog { "mappings" : { "post" : { "properties": { "title" : { "type" : "text" }, "date" : { "type" : "date", "format": "E, dd MMM YYYY HH:mm:ss Z" }, "author": { "type": "keyword" }, "category": { "type": "keyword" }, "guid": { "type": "integer" } } } } } Explicit mapping at index creation time
23. PUT /blog {
 "mappings": {
 "post": {
 "properties": {
 "title": {
 "type": "text",
 "fields": {
 "nl": {
 "type": "text",
 "analyzer": "dutch"
 },
 "en": {
 "type": "text",
 "analyzer": "english"
 },
 "keyword": {
 "type": "keyword"
 } 
 }
 },
 "date": {
 "type": "date",
 "format": "E, dd MMM YYYY HH:mm:ss Z"
 },
 "language": {
 "type": "keyword"
 },
 "author": {
 "type": "keyword"
 },
 "category": {
 "type": "keyword"
 },
 "guid": {
 "type": "integer"
 }
 }
 }
 }
 } Alternative mapping
24. "properties": {
 "title": {
 "type": "text",
 "fields": {
 "nl": {
 "type": "text",
 "analyzer": "dutch"
 },
 "en": {
 "type": "text",
 "analyzer": "english"
 },
 "keyword": {
 "type": "keyword"
 } 
 }
 }, What’s with the analyzers?
25. Analyzed vs non-analyzed
26. Full-text vs exact value
27. By default strings are analyzed … unless you mention it in the mapping
28. Built-in analyzers •Standard •Simple •Whitespace •Stop •Keyword •Pattern •Language •Snowball •Custom Standard tokenizer Lowercase token filter English stop word token filter
29. POST /_analyze { "analyzer" : "standard", "text" : "Hey man, how are you doing?" } POST /_analyze { "analyzer" : "whitespace", "text" : "Hey man, how are you doing?" } POST /_analyze { "analyzer" : "english", "text" : "Hey man, how are you doing?" } Test the analyzer
30. Hey man, how are you doing? hey man how are you doing Standard Hey man, how are you doing? Whitespace hei man how you do English
31. POST /blog/post/_search { "_source": ["title"], "query": { "match": { "title": "working" } } }
32. "hits": { "total": 1, "max_score": 4.5011063, "hits": [ { "_index": "blog", "_type": "post", "_id": "2742", "_score": 4.5011063, "_source": { "title": "Hosted SharePoint 2010: working efficiently as a team" } } ] } }
33. POST /blog/post/_search { "_source": ["title"], "query": { "match": { "title.en": "working" } } }
34. }, "hits": { "total": 4, "max_score": 4.9479203, "hits": [ { "_index": "blog", "_type": "post", "_id": "2742", "_score": 4.9479203, "_source": { "title": "Hosted SharePoint 2010: working efficiently as a team" } }, { "_index": "blog", "_type": "post", "_id": "5586", "_score": 4.896652, "_source": { "title": "WebAssembly: several world players work on a faster Internet" } }, { "_index": "blog", "_type": "post", "_id": "3873", "_score": 4.8334804, "_source": { "title": "SSL: what is it and how does it work?" } },
35. Search
36. POST /blog/post/_count { "query": { "match": { "title": "PROXY protocol support in Varnish" } } } 164 posts 1 post POST /blog/post/_count { "query": { "bool": { "filter": { "term": { "title.keyword": "PROXY protocol support in Varnish" } } } } }
37. Filter context vs Query context
38. Filter •Does it match? Yes or no •When relevance doesn’t matter •Faster & cacheable •For non-analyzed data Query •How well does it match? •For full-text search •On analyzed/tokenized data
39. Match Query Match Phrase Query Match Phrase Prefix Query Multi Match Query Common Terms Query Query String Query Simple Query String Query Term Query Terms Query Range Query Exists Query Prefix Query Wildcard Query Regexp Query Fuzzy Query Type Query Ids Query Constant Score Query Bool Query Dis Max Query Function Score Query Boosting Query Indices Query Nested Query Has Child Query Has Parent Query Parent Id Query GeoShape Query Geo Bounding Box Query Geo Distance Query Geo Distance Range Query Geo Polygon Query More Like This Query Template Query Script Query Percolate Query Span Term Query Span Multi Term Query Span First Query Span Near Query Span Or Query Span Not Query Span Containing Query Span Within Query Span Field Masking Query

More relevant
49. POST /blog/_search?_source=false { "query": { "bool": { "filter": { "term": { "category": "PHPBenelux" } } } } } Using a filter instead of a query We don’t care about the source

56. Multi “all the things”
57. Aggregations
58. Group by on steroids
59. SELECT author, COUNT(guid) FROM blog.post GROUP BY author Aggregations in SQL Metric Bucket
60. SELECT author, COUNT(guid) FROM blog.post GROUP BY author POST /blog/post/_search?pretty { "size": 0 "aggs": { "popular_bloggers": { "terms": { "field": "author" } } } } Only aggs, no docs

80. Integrating Elasticsearch
81. It’s REST, deal with it!
82. Or just use an API PHP Java Perl Python Ruby .NET
83. Try it yourself! http://github.com/ thijsferyn/ elasticsearch_tutorial
