Migrates a PB-scale log platform from Elasticsearch 6.8.4 to OpenSearch 2.x using dual writes and backfill from Kinesis, storing ~8 PB with 21-day retention and ingesting ~5M events/sec; adopts searchable snapshots on S3 to separate compute and storage, uses subclustering (node attributes) to isolate tenants, upgrades hot hosts to i4 instances, and reduces nodes from ~1,500 to ~1,000; benchmarks and custom index-state scripts validate read/write performance and deliver a 30% cost reduction.
