Hi Robert,
Thanks for sharing your feedback.
The question does not necessarily want to search the text inside the scanned files. When files are uploaded to S3, we can assume that a certain type of metadata is also stored to accompany each photo, like date, location data, author, etc.
This metadata is loaded to CloudSearch (could be YAML or JSON Format) and will be used to index the files.
The searching feature is not necessarily used for searching the text inside the scanned files but rather the metadata for each file. This way users can search and pull up the correct file name based on the criteria they defined.
