The Integration of Elasticsearch and Sharepoint Adds Capabilities
August 24, 2015
The article on the IDM Blog titled BA Insight Brings Together Elasticsearch and Sharepoint describes yet another vendor embracing Elasticsearch and falling in love again with Sharepoint. The integration of Elasticsearch and Sharepoint enables customers to use Elasticsearch through Sharepoint portals. The integration also made BA Insight’s portfolio accessible through open source Elasticsearch as well as Logstash and Kibana, Elastic’s data retrieval and reporting systems, respectively. The article quotes the Director of Product Management at Elastic,
“BA Insight makes it possible for Elasticsearch and SharePoint to work seamlessly together…By enabling Elastic’s powerful real-time search and analytics capabilities in SharePoint, enterprises will be able to optimize how they use data within their applications and portals.” “Combining Elasticsearch and SharePoint opens up a world of exciting applications for our customers, ranging from geosearch and pattern search through search on machine data, data visualization, and low-latency search,” said Jeff Fried, CTO of BA Insight.”
Specific capabilities that the integration will enable include connectors to over fifty system, auto-classification, federation to improve the presentation of results within the Sharepoint framework, applications like Smart Previews and Matter Comparison. Users also have the ability to decide for themselves whether they want to use the Sharepoint search engine or Elastic’s, or combine them and put the results together into a set. Empowering users to make the best choice for their data is at the heart of the integration.

The Integration of Elasticsearch and Sharepoint Adds Capabilities : Stephen E. Arnold @ Beyond Search
I wish I had the resources to implement your suggestions and insights. Alas, I am a citizen bereft of good search engines. I used to love Alta Vista, back in the day when it was still unique unto itself. I could search and organize my searches according to my own priorities. It was bought and destroyed. Now I’m stuck with search engines with their own priorities and cannot really find the information I need or want. Citizen consumers who care enough to look past the news media and want the truth find it as difficult to locate on Google, Yahoo, or Bing as it is on CNN, CBS, ABC, Fox or The Wall Street Journal or The New York Times or The Washington Post. Yikes. Your thoughts on useful search for the rest of us?
