Introduction

When we say that Orama Cloud is batteries-included, we mean that it gives you everything you need to start searching and generating answers (conversations) without any complex configuration. Out of the box, Orama Cloud also includes:

  • ๐Ÿงฉ Native and Custom integrations to easily import your data.
  • ๐Ÿš€ Web Components to easily integrate a full-featured Searchbox on your website in no time.
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Quality checks, analytics and quality control tools to fine-tune your users experience.
  • ๐Ÿ” Secure proxy configuration and advanced security options.
  • and much moreโ€ฆ


Basic concepts

At the core of Orama Cloud, there are three simple concepts:

  • ๐Ÿ“– Index: a collection of documents that you can search through.
  • ๐Ÿ“„ Schema: a set of rules that define how the documents are structured.
  • ๐Ÿ—ฟ Immutability: once youโ€™ve created an index and populated it with documents, it will remain immutable. To change the content of an index, you have to perform a re-deployment.

With your index, you can perform full-text, vector, and hybrid search queries, as well as generative conversations. Add your data, define the schema, and youโ€™re ready to go!



Create your first index
