Manticore is seldom mentioned around here but it seems to be a really good alternative [1]. The fact that is the search engine Craigslist uses gives them a lot of credibility.
This may be a bit silly, but I wonder if the design of their blog and website makes them look a bit "old fashioned" or something.

- pqdbr 2y agoFunny you mentioned because I also get that vibe from the Manticore website. We do judge books by their covers afterall.
- philippemnoel 2y agoManticore is primarily oriented towards the MySQL world
- emmanueloga_ 2y agoIt uses the MySQL protocol and has some extra features for MySQL users like the Federated engine [1], so it should definitely be nice for MySQL users. But it also has an HTTP API [2] so sending data to manticore should be no different than sending it to Elastic, Meili or whatnot. -- 1: https://manual.manticoresearch.com/Extensions/FEDERATED https://manual.manticoresearch.com/Extensions/FEDERATED 2: https://manual.manticoresearch.com/Connecting_to_the_server/HTTP https://manual.manticoresearch.com/Connecting_to_the_server/...
