The OCL tools and community support global efforts in the fight against infectious diseases, including the US President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and OpenMRS, the leading open-source medical record system. These communities rely on standards and terminologies to implement systems and to enable health systems research and large-scale biomedical research that helps to make healthcare affordable, safe, effective, and equitable in line with target 3.8 "Achieve universal health coverage".
OCL can be deployed with OpenSearch or ElasticSearch. We have documented the approach to use OpenSearch here: https://github.com/OpenConceptLab/ocl-docs/blob/main/docs/source/ocl/self-hosting.md#deploying-with-opensearch
