Dynamic Mapping

Dynamic mapping is a feature in systems like Elasticsearch that automatically creates a data structure for new information as it’s added. When you insert new data, the system detects the type of information (like text, numbers, or dates) and creates an appropriate structure for it without manual setup. This allows for seamless and flexible data indexing, making it easier to search and analyze large or evolving datasets. Essentially, it streamlines data management by adapting to new data types on the fly, saving time and reducing the need for upfront configuration.
