Since then, we've been working hard to address problems with the integration and prepare for [another attempt](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/853).\n\n## Selective indexing\n\nAt the heart of our dilemma was a classic \"chicken and egg\" problem. We needed\nto gather more information about [Elasticsearch](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/advanced_search/elasticsearch.html) to make improvements to the total\nindex size, but without an active deployment, that information was very hard to\ngather. Customer feedback and small-scale testing in development environments\nall help, but [dogfooding](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/values/#dogfooding)\nthe integration is the best way to get the information we require.\n\nTo resolve this, we prioritized changes to enable Elasticsearch integration on\nGitLab.com. Since the index size was a hard problem, this meant some kind of\nselective indexing was necessary, so we've added\n[per-project and per-group controls](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/advanced_search/elasticsearch.html).\n\nOn Jun. 24, 2019, we enabled the integration for the `gitlab-org` group on\nGitLab.com. Now, any searches at the group or project level will make use of the\nElasticsearch index, and the advanced features the integration unlocks will be available.\nWe figured, why not [give it a try](https://gitlab.com/search?search=gitlab-org+%28gitaly+%7C+ee%29&group_id=9970)?\n\nThe total index size for this group – which includes about 500 projects – is around 2.2\nmillion documents and 15GB of data, which is really easy to manage from the point of view of\nElasticsearch administration. The indexing operation itself didn't [go as smoothly as we hoped](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/issues/800), however!\n\n## Bug fixes\n\nAnother advantage to having selective Elasticsearch indexing enabled on GitLab.com\nis that our engineers need confidence that the feature is performant,\nthat it won't threaten the overall stability of GitLab.com, and that it is\nsubstantially bug-free. So we went through a [Production Readiness Review](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-com/gl-infra/-/epics/64)\nbefore enabling it. The review uncovered a number of pre-existing bugs and new regressions, which have all been fixed in the\n[12.0 release](/releases/2019/06/22/gitlab-12-0-released/). Some of the bugs included:\n\n* [Elasticsearch was sometimes used for searches, even when disabled](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/11795)\n* [Performance regression indexing database content](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/11595)\n* [Regression searching for some projects at group level](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12091)\n* [Regression visiting page 2 of search results](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12254)\n* [Wiki indexing still relied on a shared filesystem](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/11269)\n* [Searching snippets with Elasticsearch enabled still queries the database, not Elasticsearch](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/10548)\n\nWe still can't claim to be bug-free, of course, but the picture is a lot rosier than if we'd attempted to roll out this feature without first using it ourselves.\n\nWe'd tested the new indexing code on our staging environment, but this was last\nrefreshed more than a year ago, and was significantly smaller than the group on\nGitLab.com, containing around 150 projects. As a result, some bugs and\nscalability issues were uncovered for the first time in production. We're\naddressing them with high priority in the 12.1 and 12.2 releases. The scaling issues include:\n\n* [Project imports unconditionally enqueue an ElasticCommitIndexerWorker](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12362)\n* [Allow maximum bulk request size to be configured](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12375)\n* [Intelligently retry bulk-insert failures when indexing](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12372)\n* [Note bulk indexing often fails due to statement timeout](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12402)\n* [Cannot index large snippets](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12111)\n* [Removing documents from the index can fail with a conflict error](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12114)\n\nOnce these issues are addressed, indexing at scale should be quick, easy, and\nreliable. Indexing at scale is invaluable from the point of view of an engineer trying out\nchanges to reduce total index size.\n\n## Administration\n\nAnother area for improvement is administering the indexing process\nitself. Although GitLab automatically creates, updates, and removes documents\nfrom the index when changes are made, backfilling existing data required manual\nintervention, running a set of complicated (and slow) rake tasks to get the\npre-existing data into the Elasticsearch index. Unless these instructions were\nfollowed correctly, search results would be incomplete. There was also no way\nto configure a number of important parameters for the indexes created by GitLab.\n\nWhen using the selective indexing feature, GitLab now automatically enqueues\n\"backfill\" tasks for groups and projects as they are added, and removes the\nrelevant records from the index when they are supposed to be removed. We've also made it possible to\n[configure the number of shards and replicas](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/advanced_search/elasticsearch.html)\nfor the Elasticsearch index directly in the admin panel, so when GitLab creates\nthe index for you, there's no need to manually change the parameters afterwards.\n\nPersonal snippets are the one type of document that won't be respected in the\nselective-indexing case. To ensure they show up in search results, you'll still\nneed to run the [`gitlab:elastic:index_snippets`](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/advanced_search/elasticsearch.html) rake task [for now](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12333).\n\nThere are also improvements if you're not using selective indexing – the admin\narea now has a \"Start indexing\" button. Right now, this only makes sense if\nstarting from an empty index, and doesn't index personal snippets either, but\nwe're hopeful we can [remove the rake tasks entirely](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/11206)\nin the future.\n\n## What next?\n\nWe're really happy to have Elasticsearch enabled for the `gitlab-org` group, but\nthe eventual goal is to have it [enabled on all of GitLab.com](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/153).\nWe'll be rolling it out to more groups in the future.\n\nTo get there, we'll need to continue to improve the\n[administration experience](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/428) using Elasticsearch.\nFor instance, it's still difficult to see the indexing status of a group or\nproject at a glance, a function that would be really useful for our support team to answer\nqueries like \"Why isn't this search term returning the expected results?\"\n\n### Managing the Elasticsearch schema is also a challenge\n\nCurrently, we take the easy route of reindexing everything if we need to change some aspect of the\nschema, which doesn't scale well as the index gets larger. [Some\nwork on this is ongoing](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/328),\nand the eventual goal is for GitLab to automatically manage changes to the\nElasticsearch index in the same way it does for the database.\n\n[Reducing the index size](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/429) is\nstill a huge priority, and we hope to make progress on this now that we\nhave an Elasticsearch deployment to iterate against.\n\n### We'd also like to improve the quality of search results\n\nFor example, we have\nreports of code search [failing to find certain identifiers](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/10693) and we'd like to use the Elasticsearch index in more contexts, such as for\n[filtered search](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/12082).\n\nThe Elasticsearch integration is progressing. Finally, responsibility for the Elasticsearch integration has been passed from\nthe [Plan stage](/handbook/product/categories/#plan-stage)\nto the [Editor group of the Create stage](/handbook/product/categories/#editor-group).\nI hope you'll join Mario and me in wishing [Kai](/company/team/#phikai),\n[Darva](/company/team/#DarvaSatcher), and the rest of the team the best of luck in tackling the remaining challenges for Elasticsearch. An up-to-date overview of their plans can always be found on\nthe [search strategy](/direction/global-search/) page.\n\nPhoto by [Benjamin Elliott](https://unsplash.com/photos/vc9u77c0LO4) on
