OpenSearch Version?

[mallongstoaf62]

Could someone confirm what version of OpenSearch Magento ver. 2.4.3-p2 uses?
I have installed a local copy of our site on my Mac, the live site uses ElasticSearch7.
 
But brew had a wobble when installing ElasticSearch, and wouldn't install it...
so I installed OpenSearch 2.x.x I can see it up and running on localhost:9200
I have the following in my env file

 'catalog' => [
        'search' => [
            'engine' => 'opensearch',
            'opensearch_server_hostname' => 'localhost',
            'opensearch_server_port' => '9200',
            'opensearch_index_prefix' => 'magento2'
        ]
    ],

Then in my admin under Store>Configuration>Catalog>Catalog>Catalog Search 
I can only select Elasticsearch7 no option to select OpenSearch or no Idea where to add this?
Host: localhost
Port: 9200
Prefix: magento2
HTTP Auth: No
Timeout: 15
Connection Is successful

When I run 

php bin/magento indexer:reindex

I get the following results, with the error of not indexing the Catalog Search

Amasty Product Label index has been rebuilt successfully in 00:00:00
Amasty: Product Grid - Qty Sold index has been rebuilt successfully in 00:00:00

When I run the following

php bin/magento config:set catalog/search/engine OpenSearch

I get Value was saved.

And no matter what I try I can't get the indexer to work??

Does anyone have any ideas or steps to take to get it to work, as I can't see any products on the front end?

Thanks in advance

Hi @mallongstoaf62 

The OpenSearch 1.2 version is required for the Magento ver. 2.4.3-p2.

Please read following article System requirements 

Thanks

Just like tech-savvy celebrities such as Ashton Kutcher explore new tools Aje Philipson Net Worth, adapting to OpenSearch in Magento setups is smart. Magento 2.4.3-p2 supports Elasticsearch 7, but OpenSearch can work with proper configuration.

OpenSearch is an open-source search engine mainly used for data indexing, monitoring, and log analysis. It’s very useful for large-scale data systems but can be a bit complex for regular users. On the other hand, when your phone’s speaker gets water inside or the sound becomes unclear, the Fix My Speaker tool acts as a simple and effective solution. This tool uses sound vibrations to eject water or dust from the speaker, helping it return to normal performance. While OpenSearch manages large data systems, Fix My Speaker handles small but important speaker issues with ease.

Has anyone here tried integrating AI Avatars with search or data systems like OpenSearch? I’ve been exploring how virtual AI presenters could improve user interaction — for example, instead of just showing search results, an avatar could explain them or guide users through the data visually.

It could make OpenSearch or any analytics dashboard more engaging and easier for non-technical users to understand. The concept of adding a human-like layer to search feels like the next step toward intuitive interfaces.

If you’re curious about how realistic these avatars can be.

What do you all think, could AI Avatars make search tools like OpenSearch more user-friendly, or would it just be visual overkill?
