Advanced (Elastic) Search for Your Legacy Application

Shows how to add Elasticsearch to a Spring Boot + PostgreSQL app by calling the Java client at save time (no ETL) and using the bulk API for ingestion, plus a retry queue for failed index writes; demonstrates an edge n-gram analyzer to fix prefix/typo searches and uses Kibana for aggregations. Live demo indexes up to one million docs while serving queries, shows sub-10ms search latencies and example throughput numbers (tens of docs/sec then much faster), and confirms Elasticsearch is not transactional.
