Autocomplete At Scale with Elasticsearch
Matthew Purcell here, manager of data engineering at RE/MAX. If you have a spare hour - listen to me talk about autocomplete, also known as type-ahead, at scale. At scale for RE/MAX signifies half a billion autocomplete requests a month over a corpus of 70 million listings, 250 million addresses, and a billion + property documents.
Due to audio quality, the beginning of the video is cut. Therefore I'd like to give a big thank you to Elastic ( who we use as a service ) for hosting this event in partnership with RE/MAX.
