Why the f*** couldn't they just build Elasticsearch with a SQL query language from the start? I hate their JSON query syntax and now that this is out I feel like I wasted all the time I spent making my applications work with it.
- fiedzia 4y agoYou can use ES as data storage, and in that case SQL makes sense. It was originally created as full-text search utility, and for that part SQL is not very useful.
