Setting Up a Amazon Opensearch (ElasticSearch) Cluster with Free Tier

Amazon Opensearch is a distributed, NoSQL, and managed datastore on AWS. It excels at text based lookups (aka fuzzy text) lookups and can even be used as a datastore that scales horizontally. Formerly, this service was known as ElasticSearch until it recently forked off a recent version and rebranded itself as Opensearch.
In this video, I walk you through the process of setting up your first OpenSearch cluster and viewing sample data in the Kibana dashboard. Everything done in this video is using the AWS Free Tier.

[@PriyanshuChauhan]

Elasticsearch always had unexpected bills for me, thanks for detailed description.

[@viktorbabchanik]

Your videos are so good. I wish you had an entire video course on AWS.

[@stephenanderson1103]

Please do a serverless one.

[@sebastianmeckovski9980]

Pretty good video. Could you make another one explaining how to retrieve the same data in a APPSYNC_JS resolver?

[@samys288]

Very nice video, I would like ask you something; from which aws services can be delivered data to opensearch?

[@fernantutor4419]

what is cheaper between managed service, serverless or ingestion? We just need to create a SIEM to meet a checklist for soc2. Something like if logs has been 30 days old, it will be moved to cold storage...

[@guilhermearantes4627]

Can someone help me? I need to setup a SAML federation using Azure AD the AWS docs are very unclear
