Description

This feature request aims to enhance AWS Amplify by integrating specific search capabilities currently available in OpenSearch/ElasticSearch directly into the Amplify framework, without the need for setting up and managing external OpenSearch instances.

Integrating advanced search features such as sorting, wildcard, and full-text searches requires setting up external instances of OpenSearch or ElasticSearch. Directly integrating these capabilities into Amplify could significantly streamline development processes and reduce overheads associated with maintaining external services.
