There are 3 modules in this course
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to Elasticsearch, structured around three key areas. The first section covers installation, configuration, and core architectural concepts, including RESTful APIs and the Term Frequency/Inverse Document Frequency algorithm. Students then progress to mapping and indexing techniques, learning to efficiently organize and manage data through various methods such as bulk operations, updates, and deletions. The course also explores analyzers, tokenizers, and advanced data modeling approaches including parent-child relationships. The final module focuses on search capabilities, teaching students how to execute and optimize queries using techniques like phrase matching, fuzzy searches, partial matching, and filters. Throughout the course, practical examples using the MovieLens dataset provide hands-on experience, preparing students to implement Elasticsearch in real-world scenarios.
