Litium Search is powered by Elasticsearch
Litium Search uses Elasticsearch as the search engine for searching Litium entities.
Elasticsearch is a third-party product that is specialized in fast distributed searches.
In the Accelerator deafult implementation, the search returns hits for products, categories and pages. Content of a blocks are treated as parts of the page they reside in, so if there is a search match in the block of a page, that page will be returned as a search hit.
Litium Search is used as a centralized search index for multiple webfronts in a multi-server environment, which generates the same result for the same search request for a site.
For more information, please see the documentation pages for .NET clients for Elasticsearch.

N-grams of each word where the start of the N-gram is anchored to the beginning of the word.
