Session!
Searching for UFOs with Elasticsearch
Elasticsearch is an exciting and powerful tool that enables you to quickly add search capabilities to your application to enable your users to find whatever it is they're looking for. In this session attendees will learn the nuts and bolts of Elasticsearch, including basic concepts such as ingestion, search, aggregation and more.
We’ll demonstrate how to use Elasticsearch by building a simple UFO search engine that Scully and Mulder would be jealous of by integrating it into the front and backend of your application. By the time we’re done you’ll want to believe too!
The truth is out there and now you can search for it yourself!
