OpenSearch 2.3 has been officially released. This release provides significant improvements in performance, data durability, and availability, the announcement reads.

important changes

• Segment replication: Segment replication provides users with a new data replication strategy. With segment replication, OpenSearch replicates Lucene file segments from the primary shard to its replicas, improving performance for high-throughput workloads.
• remote storage: Remote-backed storage allows users to deploy cloud storage to improve data durability. Users can backup and restore data in the cluster on a per-index basis using cloud-based storage solutions.
• Introducing drag-and-drop visualizers: New drag-and-drop visualization tools allow users to generate different types of visualizations faster and more intuitively. Users can drag and drop data fields to generate line, bar, area, and measure charts.
