Summary


In this chapter, we looked at the Suggest API and saw how we can use term, phrase, and completion suggesters with their configuration details. Then, we looked at the various functionalities to improve the relevancy of search results provided by Elasticsearch. We looked at how we can broaden the scope of matching documents with the synonym facility. Finally, we tried to correctly understand the notion of the _all field in depth.

Thank you for reading this book. We hope that you liked it and that we have reinforced your knowledge of effective indexing, which can adeptly help you to improve the relevancy of search results using Elasticsearch.
