Hello there! Now that you know how Elasticsearch reads data, how does it write data? When a write request is sent, it goes through the same routing mechanism that we explained earlier. This process helps in determining which replication group currently stores or should store the document. When it comes…

Hello there! In our previous conversation, we briefly discussed the concept of routing in Elasticsearch. Now, let’s go on a journey to learn more about how Elasticsearch handles data reading. …

Hello there! Have you ever considered how Elasticsearch knows where to store your documents? And how does it know where to look for them, as well as whether to retrieve, update, or delete them? It’s an exciting process that all comes down to the concept of routing. Introduction to Routing

Hey there! So, you probably already know that an Elasticsearch cluster is made up of one or more nodes. Each node stores data on shards, and each shard is stored on a node. …

Hey there! Now that we understand sharding, let’s delve into something similar yet distinct: replication. Understanding Shard Replication in Elasticsearch An index consists of a single shard by default, but what happens if the node where a shard is stored experiences a failure such as a disk failure? The data is lost because we have…

Hey there! I’m excited to share some additional information with you. You’re probably aware that Elasticsearch has a fantastic feature that allows it to scale up by adding nodes to a cluster. This means that as your data and disk space requirements grow, you can easily expand the cluster to…

Great job on getting a good understanding of what an Elasticsearch cluster is. Now, let’s take a moment to inspect the one that we have running, and I’ll guide you through it step-by-step. To start, simply open up the console tools in Kibana. You can find it by clicking the…

Hey there! Today, we’ll have a fun and simple chat about Elasticsearch architecture. So, sit back, grab a coffee and settle in. “Elasticsearch is one of the most powerful search engines available today. Its ability to index and search vast amounts of data quickly and accurately makes it an indispensable…

Hey there👋! Great job on reading the title correctly. Today, I’ll be showing you how to block NodeJS even though it’s a non-blocking runtime environment. Join me on this short exploration of the different scenarios that can block our NodeJS event loop. Introduction NodeJS is a really powerful open-source, cross-platform runtime…
