Technical Overview
Architecture: Microservices with an indexing worker, search API, and UI frontend.
Indexing engine: Use Elasticsearch or OpenSearch for scalable full-text and metadata queries.
Storage: Metadata in the search index; file previews cached on object storage (S3-compatible).
Security: OAuth for third-party access, encrypted tokens, RBAC for user permissions, TLS in transit.
Scalability: Shard indices by tenant; autoscale workers for large crawls.
Monitoring: Metrics (Prometheus), logs (ELK), alerting for failed crawls or auth expirations.
