• Most performant way to build an analytics dashboard from a relational database backend that only stores numeric values, where the data the end-user sees is "categorized" into numeric brackets (e.g. 60-79 = Med, 80-100 = High, etc)

  I run a large scale production application that does something along these lines. If the data needs to be close to real-time, I'd say use `searchkick` + Elasticsearch, and use `searchkick`'s async feature to "stream" the data from your table to the ES index. Your dashboard will then just query from the ES index via searchkick. Source: over 1 year ago

• Postgres Full Text Search vs. the Rest

  You're right, that's actually what we implemented, application-level hooks, but they needed development and maintenance effort that come for free with the adapter we're using for OpenSearch integration, which also comes with welcome features: synonyms, partial matches, and many others. Spoiler, the adapter is Searchkick: https://github.com/ankane/searchkick. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• How does elasticsearch work with a rails app that's already connected to a MySQL database.

  Normally for Rails applications you would use a gem like searchkick since it greatly reduces the initial Elasticsearch complexity. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Building a Workflow for Async Searchkick Reindexing

  We lean heavily on Elasticsearch at CompanyCam. One of it's primary use cases is serving our highly filterable project feed. It is incredibly fast, even when you apply multiple filters to your query and are searching a largish data set. Our primary interface for interacting with Elasticsearch is using the Searchkick gem. Searchkick is a powerhouse and provides so many features out of the box. One place where we... - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Swapping Elasticsearch for Meilisearch in Rails feat. Docker

  Convinced? Ok read on and I’ll show you what switching from Elasticsearch to Meilisearch looked like for a real production app — ScribeHub. We also moved from Ankane’s excellent Searchkick gem to the first party meilisearch-rails gem and I’ll show you the changes there as well. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Swirl: An open-source search engine with LLMs and ChatGPT to provide all the answers you need 🌌

  Using the Galaxy UI, knowledge workers can systematically review the best results from all configured services including Apache Solr, ChatGPT, Elastic, OpenSearch, PostgreSQL, Google BigQuery, plus generic HTTP/GET/POST with configurations for premium services like Google's Programmable Search Engine, Miro and Northern Light Research. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Looking for software

  Apache Solr can be used to index and search text-based documents. It supports a wide range of file formats including PDFs, Microsoft Office documents, and plain text files. https://solr.apache.org/. Source: almost 1 year ago

• 'google-like' search engine for files on my NAS

  If so, then https://solr.apache.org/ can be a solution, though there's a bit of setup involved. Oh yea, you get to write your own "search interface" too which would end up calling solr's api to find stuff. Source: over 1 year ago

• Search engine.

  Developers will use their SQL database when searching for specific things like client names, product names, or address search. Now when you want to level up from there and search all tables you better off using a separated server with a specific program like https://solr.apache.org/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Search text from PDF files stored in an S3 bucket

  We’re using a self-managed OpenSearch node here, but you can use Lucene, SOLR, ElasticSearch or Atlas Search. Source: almost 2 years ago
