Elasticsearch is a distributed, open-source search and analytics engine designed for horizontal scalability, high availability, and real-time search and analysis. It was first released in 2010 by Elasticsearch BV (now Elastic NV) and is written in Java.

Elasticsearch is based on the Lucene library and provides a RESTful API for indexing and searching data. It can be used to index and search various types of data, including structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data, such as text, geospatial data, and metrics. Elasticsearch is widely used for logging, monitoring, searching, and analytics in industries such as e-commerce, finance, healthcare, and more. Elastic NV provides commercial support and enterprise features for Elasticsearch, as well as other products such as Kibana, Logstash, and Beats.
