Speaker(s): 
Martijn van Groningen

Lucene based search engines like Elasticsearch are document based and the usual way of modelling your data is to de-normalise / flatten your data. Other then just de-normalising and flatting your data Elasticsearch does provide other ways of modelling your data. In this session we will dive into the document relation features Elasticsearch has to offer and how you can use these features in combination with Elasticsearch's analytical capabilities, structured and unstructured search.
