This session was presented at BLUEPRINT 4D 2026.
In PeopleTools 8.62 it is possible to add and configure additional OpenSearch Plugins to OpenSearch delivered for PeopleSoft. Symantec Search can be configured using Neural Search and machine learning models. Semantic search employs Neural Search in order to determine the intention of the user’s query in the search context, thereby improving search relevance. Neural Search can use OpenSearch-provided pretrained models, your own custom models, or a foundation model hosted on an external platform. Conversational Search can be configured to use external AI LLM’s. Conversational Search uses large language models (LLMs) to read the top N documents and synthesizes those documents into a plaintext “answer” to your question. Additional Plug-Ins that can be configured are Anomaly Detection and Alerting. Anomaly detection automatically detects anomalies in your OpenSearch data in near real-time and the Alerting Plugin can notify you as soon as an anomaly is detected.
