There is an existing ArabicAnalyzer in the existing language analyzers: > **[Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale](https://www.elastic.co)** > > Power insights and outcomes with the Elasticsearch Platform and AI. See into your data and find answers that matter with enterprise solutions designed to help you build, observe, and protect. Try Elasticsearch free today. According to the Lucene source, it uses the StandardTokenizer, a ArabicNormalizationFilter (beside other standard filters) and a custom Arabic stop set and stem exclusions.
