Search Engine Service scenarios

Available in Classic and VPC

You can easily create, operate, and manage Search Engine clusters in the Search Engine Service of NAVER Cloud Platform. You can learn more about how to use it in the Getting started with Search Engine Service (VPC), Getting started with Search Engine Service (Classic) and using the Search Engine Service, but we recommend that you first look at the full scenario of using the Search Engine Service. Reading the guide after learning the usage scenario will allow you to use the Search Engine Service more smoothly. The following is the full sequence of using the Search Engine Service and a step-by-step description:

1. Set usage permissions
2. Create clusters
3. Manage cluster
4. Save and manage data
5. Cluster monitoring (VPC)
6. Create and use snapshot
7. Delete cluster

1. Set usage permissions

Set usage permissions for the Search Engine Service. Usage permissions of Search Engine Service are defined by mapping roles to Sub Accounts issued by NAVER Cloud Platform's sub accounts. Therefore, you need to first create sub accounts other than your main account through Sub Account.

You can use sub accounts provided by Sub Account to configure admin permissions and user permissions of the Search Engine Service. You can refer to the following user guide:
