Search Domain

Overview#

The Search domain provides comprehensive search capabilities across the platform, supporting multiple search types including full-text, semantic, faceted, geospatial, temporal, and graph-based search. It enables users to quickly locate relevant information across investigations, profiles, evidence, and other platform data with configurable relevance tuning and search analytics.

Key Features#

• Multiple Search Types - Choose from full-text keyword search, semantic similarity search, faceted filtering, geospatial proximity search, temporal range search, and graph relationship search depending on the nature of the query.

• Index Management - Create and manage search indexes with configurable field definitions, relevance weighting, and analysis settings to optimize search results for specific use cases.

• Index Templates - Define reusable index configurations with preset field mappings, analyzers, and scaling parameters for consistent and rapid index creation across the platform.

• Indexing Job Management - Run full rebuild, incremental update, optimization, and validation jobs to keep search indexes current and performant as data changes.

• Search Analytics - Monitor query patterns, search performance, and index utilization to understand how users search and identify opportunities to improve search relevance.

• Health Monitoring - Track index health scores, identify issues, and receive optimization suggestions to maintain reliable search performance.

Use Cases#

• Investigation Search - Search across investigation records, evidence, and associated entities to quickly find relevant information during active cases.

• Entity Discovery - Locate persons, organizations, vehicles, and other entities across the platform using name, identifier, or attribute-based search.

• Geographic Search - Find records within a specified geographic area or radius for location-based investigations and operational awareness.

• Temporal Analysis - Search for events, communications, and records within specific time windows to build investigative timelines.

Integration#

The Search domain connects with other platform capabilities for comprehensive data discovery:

• Investigation Management - Investigation data is indexed for rapid retrieval
• Profile Management - Entity profiles are searchable across all profile types
• Evidence Management - Evidence metadata is indexed for discovery
• Analytics - Search usage patterns feed into operational analytics
