I’ll share how we built a highly available, multi-tenant, multi-AZ search platform using OpenSearch, supporting modern capabilities like vector search for semantic search. I’ll cover key challenges and how we ensured fault tolerance and scalability across a distributed environment. Additionally, I look forward to learning from the community’s experience in scaling OpenSearch for advanced search use cases.

Attendees will understand how to design a fault-tolerant OpenSearch architecture and integrate vector search to enhance accuracy and search performance. I’ll provide insights into optimising distributed setups for high availability and resilience, ensuring OpenSearch meets enterprise-scale demands.

By sharing best practices and challenges, I hope to drive discussions on multi-region deployments and hybrid search solutions. Highlighting OpenSearch’s capabilities for scalable, AI-powered search can help expand its adoption and evolution for next-gen search applications.
