If you're building search on Elasticsearch, start here. These pages take you from selecting where to run Elasticsearch to sending your first request from code.
- Get Elasticsearch running for search: Compare fully managed and self-managed options, and select the one that fits how much infrastructure you want to run.
- Get your Elasticsearch endpoint and API key: Find your endpoint URL and create an API key.
- Connect to Elasticsearch with an SDK: Connect programmatically, install a language client, and send a request from code. If you don't want to connect programmatically, you can also get started with Elasticsearch in the Kibana Dev Tools Console.
