Description
This feature request aims to enhance AWS Amplify by integrating specific search capabilities currently available in OpenSearch/ElasticSearch directly into the Amplify framework, without the need for setting up and managing external OpenSearch instances.
Integrating advanced search features such as sorting, wildcard, and full-text searches requires setting up external instances of OpenSearch or ElasticSearch. Directly integrating these capabilities into Amplify could significantly streamline development processes and reduce overheads associated with maintaining external services.
Hey👋 thanks for raising this feature request! I'm going to transfer this over to our API repository for further evaluation.
Hi - we should probably add some docs here. https://docs.amplify.aws/react/build-a-backend/data/custom-business-logic/search-and-aggregate-queries/#step-2-setting-up-the-opensearch-instance instead of creating a new domain, you could in theory also use the opensearch.Domain.from...(...) pattern but we'll need to validate it.
