## What it is
Diskover Community Edition is an open-source file system indexer and search engine that crawls local, NFS/SMB, and cloud storage and indexes file metadata into Elasticsearch. It includes a PHP web app for searching, visualizing, and analyzing storage usage, duplicates, and file tagging.

## Use cases
- find duplicate files across network shares
- analyze what is consuming disk space on NFS storage
- search for old unused files to reclaim storage
- index and browse file metadata on a NAS
- monitor storage usage trends over time
- tag and organize files across heterogeneous storage

## When to choose
- you need to index and search large file trees across NFS/SMB or cloud storage
- you want self-hosted storage analytics powered by Elasticsearch
- you need to identify duplicates and wasted space on expensive storage

## When to avoid
- you only need a quick one-off disk usage report without an Elasticsearch dependency
- you need the commercial edition's advanced industry-specific features
- you want a lightweight desktop disk analyzer with no server components
