Hello Arul,

You'll need to remove the Search Nodetype from your Deployment configuration if you don't need the Full Text Search option which facilitates the Searching Functionality in the Pega Application. 

But May I know what you would like to achieve by removing / not using the Search Functionality through SRS or Elastic Search configuration?

@ArulDevan

I went through your post again and understood the statement. By removing the embedded Search option, Pega is trying to achieve the light weight for more faster processing capability. In that aspect, It's not applies ONLY for Search and applies for Stream Node too.

From 8.8 onwards, Pega made both Search and Stream configurations are external components through Pipelines configuration which will eventually make the Application Maintenance less and Dedicated DB connection establishment from Stream / Kafka. 

Of course, there's official documentation yet on the contradictory statement yet. But, What Pega is trying to say is that, Elastic Search is Deprecated but still be supported means, eventually new versions will not be supporting the functionality as Embedded type.

I hope, i have answered your query.
