This helps to make better relevance tuning decisions and allows to evaluate and optimize query templates over a wider range of user needs. There will be a short introduction into ranking evaluation followed by a demo of the API. ## Scale Your Elasticsearch Cluster by Philipp Krenn Elasticsearch is highly scalable, but some recent additions make it easier to tie everything together the right way. In this talk we discuss: * Index Lifecycle Management or how to automate having a multi-tier architecture and how this actually works in the background. # Bio ## Daniel Schneiter Daniel has been working in the search industry for more than a decade and is a trainer at Elastic.
