Elasticsearch is an optional, but strongly recommended dependency for Zammad. More details can be found in the documentation. There are however certain scenarios when running without Elasticsearch may be desired, e.g. for very small teams, for teams with limited budget or as a temporary solution for an unplanned Elasticsearch downtime or planned cluster upgrade.
Elasticsearch is enabled by default in the example docker-compose.yml
file. It is also by default required to run the "zammad-init" command. Disabling Elasticsearch is possible by setting a special environment variable: ELASTICSEARCH_ENABLED=false
and loading
the scenario disable-elasticsearch-service.yml.
