Real-Time Search Engine

I am feeling very excited. At VietnamWorks we are about to launch an amazing feature. We are moving our search into ElasticSearch. Hence we are achieving following items:

  • Real Time Job Post Indexing
  • Real Time Search
  • Increasing the matching hence job seekers can simply search for whatever they want.
  • Email Me Jobs now can match better jobs

Besides, it is not just about time ... It is also about search relevancy. To move all of our functionalities at VietnamWorks to ElasticSearch we spent little bit over a month. It was against our Continuous Delivery program but worth the investment. A better search will improve quality of applications as well as creates a better user experience for users. I would like to appreciate all my team members that spent so much effort to make this happen:

  • Ninh our Senior Data Architect
  • Tan our Database Administrator
  • Thang, Son and Lan our Super Senior Developers
  • Eduardo our Head of Product who saw the value of it for users and trusted us

Moving to  ElasticSearch for a big firm like us was a big and risky move. We did it to ensure our users, experience a better search and job posting. Enjoy the better search.
