Magento 2 search is now based on Elasticsearch server (from Magento 2.3 and from 2.1 for the Enterprise Edition).
Elasticsearch is a real-time distributed search and analytics engine which allows you to explore your data very quickly. It is used for full-text search, structured search, analytics, and all three in combination.
And it packages up all this functionality into a standalone server that your application can talk to via a simple RESTful API, using a web client from your favorite programming language, or even from the command line.
You can find more information on the product here:
From Magento 2, you can select the search engine you want to use in your catalog from:
Stores › Settings › Configuration › Catalog › Catalog › Catalog Search
You have the choice between:
The Elasticsearch option is faster. It slightly enhances the relevancy of the results and allows you to propose suggestions for misspelled words.
According to the search engine you've selected, the Catalog Search indexer will be indexed from:
System › Tools › Index Management
The Elasticsearch Browser extension will allow you to quickly check which data is indexed and how.
To install the Elasticsearch Browser extension in your Magento 2 backoffice:
If you're using the Elasticsearch native module from Magento, the Elasticsearch Browser extension from Wyomind will help you to see all data that are indexed.
Elasticsearch Browser allows you to receive a backend notification when the server fails. You can activate that option from:
Stores › Settings › Configuration › Wyomind › Elasticsearch Browser
A notification should be displayed when the server fails if that option is on Yes and the search engine selected is Elasticsearch from:
Stores › Settings › Configuration › cataloG › catalog
With Elasticsearch Browser, you can see what data is indexed. For this, go in:
System › Wyomind ElasticSearch Browser › Browse Data
There, you have the possibility to reload your data easily by clicking on Reload.
In the case where you're having several store view, note that the indexed data can be filtered by stores.
Feel free to reduce the number of columns that are displayed by unticking the data that you feel unnecessary.
For each line, you have 2 possible actions. You can:
From the Action column, click on Select and choose Raw data.
From the Action column, click on Select and choose Edit.
Magento offers three variations of its product.
