Amazon OpenSearch Service Adds Cluster Insights Dashboard

🔍 Amazon OpenSearch Service now includes Cluster Insights, a unified monitoring dashboard that consolidates logs and metrics to give operators comprehensive operational visibility across nodes, indices, and shards. The feature automates correlation of critical data, highlights performance metrics and top‑N query analysis, and surfaces targeted remediation steps to speed troubleshooting. Built into the OpenSearch UI, Cluster Insights retains monitoring resilience during cluster unavailability and provides account‑level summaries for managing multiple deployments. It is available at no additional cost for OpenSearch 2.17 or later in regions where the OpenSearch UI is offered.

OpenSearch Adds Derived Source Feature to Reduce Storage

🔧 Amazon OpenSearch Service announced support for Derived Source, an opt-in feature that lets you omit persisting the document _source and reconstruct it dynamically when needed. The capability, available with OpenSearch 3.1, reduces domain storage by skipping stored _source fields while still supporting search, get, mget, reindex, and update operations. Enable Derived Source at index creation using composite index settings.

OpenSearch Star-Tree Index Speeds Aggregations for Analytics

⚡ OpenSearch introduces the Star-Tree Index, an opt-in index type that pre-aggregates data at ingestion to enable sub-second responses for frequent high-cardinality and multi-dimensional aggregations such as terms, histogram, and range. The feature is designed for real-time analytics and requires no query syntax changes; OpenSearch automatically routes supported queries to the optimized path. Early benchmarks indicate markedly faster aggregation performance on large datasets with minimal impact to ingestion throughput. Available in regions that support OpenSearch 3.1 and enabled at index creation via composite index settings.
