{{/_source.additionalInfo}}Geek ElasticSearch is the most powerful, extremely fast, highly relevant and flexible search and filter system for your Joomla site. Our extension uses the Elasticsearch engine - a highly scalable open-source full-text search and analytics engine to index data and perform the search. Hence, it is possible to index, search, and analyze large volumes of data quickly and return search results in near real-time that other PHP-MySQL based search extensions can't do.
Search is one of the most important and powerful tools in any website, especially for online stores and websites that have huge amounts of data. It helps quickly deliver relevant results to your customers, hence it helps to keep customers stay on your site longer and increase interactions and sales.
REQUIREMENTS: Elasticsearch 2.3+ Joomla 3.2+ PHP 5.5.0+ cURL is installed and enabled
Get it installed by a JoomlaGeek's professional - See Details
Elasticsearch is a RESTful, distributed search and analytics engine built on Apache Lucene. Since the first version of Elasticsearch was released in 2010, it has quickly become the most popular search engine, and is commonly used for log analytics, full-text search, and operational intelligence use cases.
New technology that marries big data concepts with search, which can provide revolutionary improvements in the reliability, cost-of-ownership and flexibility. The technology is trusted by a lot of big companies and organizations such as Ebay, Mozilla, Github, …
Fast, very fast speed is the first thing that Elasticsearch will impress you. Once you finish typing in the search box, select types or change a search mode, search results are immediately returned without a delay.
Users can filter search results by content type, by categories, by language, by access, by author, by custom fields of Joomla, VirtueMart, eShopping, AdsManager, JReviews, .. This powerful filter system enables users quickly find expected results from thousands or millions of records with just some simple clicks.
This feature specially supports location-based extensions such as EasySocial, JomSocial, JEvents, DJ-Classifieds,… It enables users to narrow search results within a specific distance from a geo point.
This advanced feature enables to take full advantage of Elasticsearch’s abilities. It enables you to configure the analyzer for the index, to change Character Filters, Tokenizer and Token Filters to meet the requirements of search that your website needs.
You can control everything on search form and search result like specifying which types of content will be returned, optimizing search results with Scoring and Boosting or controlling number of items per page ..etc..
Geek ElasticSearch works compatibility with most Joomla! core data. Moreover, it provides plugins to index data of 3rd party extensions like Virtuemart, Kunena, K2... then make the indexed data available for search results.
The component supports to run incremental update of the index. It will only update the content that have only partially changed. It improves indexing time because only part of a content is indexed instead of having to re-index the entire content.
You can setup task to run indexing of your content automatically from a cron job, Geek ElasticSearch indexer can be run as a command-line application.
The component comes with two plugins with functions of trigger during the content creation process of Joomla components and immediately update the ElasticSearch index.
This feature offers a helpful option to control which items available or unavailable to visitors on your website.
Elasticsearch is an open source (Apache 2 license), distributed, a RESTful search engine built on top of the Apache Lucene library. Elasticsearch was introduced a few years after Solr. It offers a distributed, multitenant-capable, full-text search engine with an HTTP web interface (REST) and schema-free JSON documents. The distributed search engine includes indices that can be divided into shards, and each shard can have multiple replicas. Each Elasticsearch node can have one or more shards, and its engine also acts as a coordinator to delegate operations to the correct shard(s). Elasticsearch is scalable with near real-time search. The major feature list includes: Distributed search, Multi-tenancy, An analyzer chain, Search Analytics, Grouping & aggregation, ...
Geek ElasticSearch supports 3 hosted ElasticSearch services that are Searchly, Elastic Cloud and AWS ElasticSearch.
Searchly offers you another option of hosting cloud search with a reasonable price, you can select a plan that suits your needs. Searchly provides powerfull features to fulfill your Elasticsearch deployment. It is easy to create indices and setup access policy.
Elastic Cloud is the best way to consume all of Elastic's products across any cloud. Easily deploy in your favorite public cloud, or in multiple clouds, and extend the value of Elastic with cloud-native features. Accelerate results that matter, securely and at scale.
Amazon OpenSearch Service makes it easy for you to perform interactive log analytics, real-time application monitoring, website search, and more. OpenSearch is an open source, distributed search and analytics suite derived from Elasticsearch.
If you don't want to pay for hosted ElasticSearch service provider, you absolutely can download and install Elasticsearch service to your server. But, It requires you to have a knowledge of server configuration. If your server already supports ElasticSearch service, Geek ElasticSearch should work well with this service.
Geek ElasticSearch component supports multiple versions of Elasticsearch including Elasticsearch 2.3, Elasticsearch 5.x, Elasticsearch 6.x, Elasticsearch 7.x, Elasticsearch 8.x and Open Search (the fork version of Elasticsearch 7.x)
60+ integration plugins already packed without needing additional payments.

Love this extension -- a huge problem solved!
Functionality
This unique extension solved a significant problem for us: our Joomla site was too big for its built-in search.
Ease of use
There are a lot of settings to navigate but worth the time it takes to implement. Then it's set and forget.
Support
Support was excellent. I was missing a few steps, and the developer came to the rescue.
Documentation
Documentation is thorough, and when I found some missing steps, the developer updated the docs immediately.
Value for money
Well worth the cost for the extension and the external service charges.
I used this to: We use it on hour hometown newspaper site that has 60,000 pages. Nothing else will suffice! Geek Elasticsearch provides the way to connect our site to a professional indexing service that makes our site truly searchable and usable.
