Introduction

Amazon cloud search is a managed service in the Amazon cloud that helps you to manage, set up and scale a search solution for your website.

It also enables you to search a large collection of data such as web pages, forum posts, document files or any product information.

The main advantage of cloud searches is that you can quickly add search capabilities to your website and for that, you don't need to become a search expert or worry about hardware components like setup and maintenance.

So basically, you can use Amazon Cloud Search to index and search both kinds of structured data and plain text.

In Azure Cloud Search you can get two kind of search results one is JSON and another in XML format, sort and filter results based on field values and you can sort results alphabetically, numerically or according to custom expressions.
