-
The {es} solution and serverless project type position {es} as a comprehensive platform: a scalable data store, a powerful search engine, and a vector database in one. At its core, {es} is a distributed datastore that can ingest, index, and manage various types of data in near real-time, making them both searchable and analyzable. With specialized user interfaces and tools, it provides the flexibility to create, deploy, and run a wide range of applications, from search to analytics to AI-driven solutions.

You can index many types of data, keep them stored efficiently, searchable, and analyzable. If all you need is a reliable and scalable datastore, you can use {es} that way without adding anything else. All of {es}’s advanced capabilities start with its role as a [data store](/manage-data/data-store.md). Examples include, but are not limited to:

-
Search is one of the common use cases built on {es}. With your own data (text, logs, metrics, events, vectors, or geospatial information), {es} gives you the tools to store, search, and analyze it. Using these building blocks, you can design search and discovery experiences, from internal knowledge bases to product catalogs, chat interfaces, or geospatial applications.
