[abunday]

Describe the blog post your would like to write
The post discusses the concept of "searchable snapshots" in OpenSearch for storing and searching application logs. It highlights the challenges of storing and accessing large volumes of logs and the need for a more efficient solution. Searchable snapshots address these challenges by allowing direct searching of remotely stored data from the OpenSearch cluster. They save time by providing immediate access to data, reduce effort by simplifying the search process, and save money by enabling the movement of older data to cheaper remote storage. We then share our experience with searchable snapshots, emphasizing the time and resource savings. Overall, searchable snapshots act as a time machine, making historical data instantly accessible and valuable for analysis.
