OpenSearch claims FIPS compliance since 3.4 after an iterative community-driven effort sponsored by SAP, replacing noncompliant crypto with a Bouncy Castle FIPS provider, adding a specialized installer to enable FIPS mode and beginning a FIPS-enforced security plugin (plugin still unfinished). Implementation mixes config and code changes, authentication/authorization required substantial work, OpenSSL is likely unsupported, and usability and remaining meta issues require follow-up before wide production use.
