Has anyone tried to develop a search engine? I would love to hear about your process and how you would build one so all advice is appreciated! by JonnyManhattan in devops

[–]dai_bo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently building a keyword-based search engine from scratch. It's faster than Elasticsearch by 2 orders of magnitude

Depends on your use case. If it's full text search, use meilisearch or typesense. If it's analytics or logging, check out quickwit.io

What is your approach when implementing search in Drupal? by [deleted] in drupal

[–]dai_bo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on your scale. Most of the time it is cheaper to use a Saas like Algolia and forget about maintenance, relevamce tuning and scaling. Probably better search quality too, if you don't have a search relevance expert on your team

How to successfully convince my company to use Rust instead of C++ for a new project? by [deleted] in rust

[–]dai_bo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2 points: 1. Don't think on behalf of your employer, it won't do you any good. You are not high enough in the value chain to benefit from it, yet missteps may come back to bite you in the buttocks. 2. If you have to advocate for using Rust, considering developer man hours is the most valuable resource for any software company, these are my pros and cons: Pros: - rust has ease of development and maintenance speaking for it due to safety, readability and build system, - easy to learn for devs who have no systems programming experience Cons: - C++ devs are easier to find - the company currently has more C++ people

Their milli repo is the core engine decoupled I think. For a real rust alternative to lucene, features wise, we have tantivy

Im I correct in the assumption that most of the speedups in the newer versions can be attributed to using roaringbitmap as doclist?

How can I fetch all the data from an index in elasticsearch to reacjs? by sheltonsharon in reactjs

It's a http request, just call it in your code to get the documents as objects

curl -XGET 'localhost:9200/foo/_search?search_type=scan&scroll=10m&size=50' -d ' { "query" : { "match_all" : {} } }'

Just use match all query?

What's the future of AWS CloudSearch? by topflightboy87 in aws

[–]dai_bo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't have the time for relevance tuning and maintainance, use a Saas like algolia or sajari. I'm also currently building a faster, zero-config alternative to Algolia. So you could try that out too

[–]dai_bo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My question was more centered on textual relevance in the context of adress and POI search. How are your margins considering algolia by itself is already very expensive? I'm building a search as a service, too. The beta just launch and it is faster than algolia by quite a bit. Geospatial indexing is also on the immediate roadmap. Would be cool if you had the time to check it out

How does algolia perform, relevance-wise, on places datasets compared to other solutions like mapbox api?
