Sovereign Grace Singles Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Elasticsearch is offering a 14 day trial. How do I configure my IPS4 site? I tried inputting the elasticsearch server url but it says cannot connect. Would be nice for some detailed instructions on how to take advantage of this trial period. https://www.elastic.co/cloud/elasticsearch-service/signup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfarber Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 You just have to fill in the correct parameters in the AdminCP - there's not really separate instructions for any separate services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears the elasticsearch server has username and password requirement. There doesn't seem to be anywhere to set that in the AdminCP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonya* Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 You can add credentials to your Host URL like https://username:password@yourhost.eu-central-1.aws.cloud.es.io:9243 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this isn't an official support channel, so you shouldn't be expecting any responses anyways. Send in a ticket if you're attempting to set up ES.

ProSkill Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Any updates on this? I am considering using it for my forum. My understanding is that this improves the search capabilities of the forum. What are the other benefits? I've seen some documentation that suggests that ElasticSearch can be used for BI and analytics. Has one used it that way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, After testing it for a month, it worked correctly, and the cost of less than $ 3. I used the most basic ES service. These are the data to give you an idea.

I recently set up Elasticsearch through Amazon. No problems. Question, can Elasticsearch be set up to spell correct or to offer phrase suggestions etc? If so has anyone already done this and can you offer a way to implement it on our IPS software? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a performance hit etc from reducing the number of instances? By default the Instance type from Amazon was set up as m4.large.elasticsearch. My bill quickly hit $70.00 for just a couple of days of use. Now trying the t2.small.elasticsearch instance type but my number of instances is set to the default "3".

Fosters Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Have you seen https://www.elastic.co/cloud/elasticsearch-service ?

pequeno Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Sorry @ChristforumsI did not see your message. I have no problem in selecting one instance and using the t2.small.elasticsearch It may be related to the use of the EU(Ireland) zone? 1 hour ago, AlexWebsites said: This is what happened to me, my bill went to over $400 in a month.

Fosters Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 I didn't notice that the first post was all about this🙈 I'm using an elastic.co account for 2 small sites and I was also using it for my local development until I found a better local workflow and the we're paying around 15€ per month.

I canceled it. Yes, I could see that happening and is why I set the instance type to t2.small.elasticsearch which is a free tier for up to 750 hours. The large.estasticserach isn't free at all. I'm a little unclear on how many instances will affect the free tier? And what the purpose is exactly of number of instances? Are instances fail overs and redundancy or do the number of instances distribute the workload over the number of instances? For example, is a single instance one database and one cpu and two gigs of ram? And two instances two database two cpu and four gigs of ram each? Amazon tends to drown someone in information with support and offer no direct answers for those uneducated in the area in which searching for help. If the number of instances are for failover then I doubt I'll see a performance decrease in contrast to distributed workload. The Elasticsearch engine from Amazon is so much better than the default search. I'm glad that this is an option but I'm trying to figure out whether this is even feasible for me at this time. After a few days of using the t2.small.elasticsearch I see that the billing isn't going up for the last few days. I'm keeping an eye on it every day.
