Elasticsearch allows you to show better search results to your visitors. Shoppers can still find what they need, even with typos, words out of order, and other all-too-human errors. Elasticsearch makes your Magento store more search-friendly and maximizes conversion potential. Because it's so useful, it's now required for Magento installs of version 2.4 and beyond. Nexcess includes Elasticsearch cloud containers with every new Magento plan.
