Amazon OpenSearch is a service that enables you to build a search application that queries your data in Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES) using the OpenSearch standard. It allows you to search your data using a simple, powerful, and flexible search API that is based on the OpenSearch standard.
With OpenSearch, you can use standard search query syntax to search your data, and you can use OpenSearch query parameters to filter, sort, and aggregate your data. You can also use OpenSearch to perform advanced search operations, such as fuzzy matching, proximity matching, and Boolean queries.
You can use OpenSearch to search any kind of data that you can index in Amazon ES, including text, numbers, dates, and geospatial data. You can also use OpenSearch to search data in different formats, such as JSON and XML.
