Amazon OpenSearch Service now supports Custom Plugins

Amazon OpenSearch Service introduces Custom Plugins, a new plugin management option that allows you to extend OpenSearch functionality and deliver personalized experiences for applications such as website search, log analytics, application monitoring and, observability. OpenSearch provides a rich set of search and analysis capabilities, and with custom plugins, you can extend these further to meet your business needs.

Until now, you had to build and operate your own search infrastructure to support applications that required customization in areas like language analysis, custom filtering, ranking and more. With this launch, you can run custom plugins on Amazon OpenSearch Service that allow you to extend the Search and Analysis functions of OpenSearch. You can use the OpenSearch Service console or APIs to upload and associate search and analysis plugins with your domains. OpenSearch Service validates plugin package for version compatibility, security, and permitted plugin operations.

Custom plugins are now supported on all OpenSearch Service domains running OpenSearch version 2.15 or later, and are available in 14 regions globally: US West (Oregon), US East (Ohio), US East (N. Virginia), South America (Sao Paulo), Europe (Paris), Europe (London), Europe (Ireland), Europe (Frankfurt), Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Seoul) and Asia Pacific (Mumbai).
