In this chapter, you learned the basic concepts of Elasticsearch. Elasticsearch REST APIs make most operations simple and straightforward. We discussed how to index, update, and delete documents. You also learned how distributed search works and how failures are handled automatically. At the end of the chapter, we discussed various strengths and limitations of Elasticsearch.
In the next chapter, we will discuss how to set up Elasticsearch and Kibana. Installing Elasticsearch is very easy as it's designed to run out of the box. Throughout this book, several examples have been used to better explain various concepts. Once you have Elasticsearch up and running, you can try the queries for yourself.
