This short document is a summary of the highlights from the pull request."
"Most internal REST APIs are one-off APIs purpose built for a single integration point. In this article, I'll discuss the constraints and flexibility that you have with nonpublic APIs, and lessons learned from doing large scale RESTful integration across multiple teams."
"Join Elastic developer Nicholas Knize to get an introduction to Elasticsearch's geospatial capabilities. He will give you a whirlwind tour of how to use Elasticsearch to make the most of your geo data and do things like:
Indexing considerations for optimizing geo-point and geo-shape based search
Geo-aggregations and bucket reducers for spatial visualization and analytics
Time-based indexing, aliasing, and percolation for complex space-time querying
But how does Elasticsearch compare to traditional solutions for geospatial search? John Boere, CEO of Cliffhanger Solutions Inc., will share his geospatial search story, giving you insight into their setup, lessons learned, and why they chose to use Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana to help utility companies manage electricity flowing through the power grid - keeping the lights on, literally."
