Azure Search and elasticsearch-py

725 Views Asked by At

now I am trying to test Azure Search with the official elasticSearch-py API. Unfortunately I can not find any example to test Azure Search with this API.

Someone has already faced this problem with the official API?

It won't work, although the Azure Search service utilizes Elasticsearch in the back end it does not expose the Elasticsearch API. That said, the Elasticsearch SDKs and tools like Kibana will not work with it out of the box.

You can either access the REST API http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn798935.aspx

...or one of the other options to get Elasticsearch on Azure:

  • Facetflow Elasticsearch from Azure Marketplace
  • Deploy Elasticsearch to Virtual Machines (This is what I use)
  • List item Deploy Elasticsearch to Cloud Services
