Hi,

We are currently using searchblox to crawl our website and Alfresco (CMS), this also  
crawls the metadata of documents and presents the results. Now we are planning to move to elastic site search and wanted to understand if same crawling is feasible with vanilla Elasticsearch.

Hello,

You should be able to do this using Elastic Site Search and its built-in crawler. If you run into any challenges, we're happy to help!

Best,
