Which of these two is the higher order bit? * ParadeDB speaks postgres protocol * These setups don't have a complex ETL pipeline If you have a ETL pipeline specialized for PG logical replication (as opposed to generic JVM based Debizium/Kafka setups), you get some fraction of the same benefits. I'm curious about Conduit and its postgres plugin. That leaves: ParadeDB uses vanilla postgres + rust extension. This is a technology detail. I was looking for an articulation of the customer benefit because of this technologically appealing architecture.

The value prop for customers vs Elasticsearch are: - ACID w/ JOINs - Real-time indexing under UPDATE-heavy workloads. Instacart wrote about this, they had to move away from Elasticsearch during COVID because of this problem: https://tech.instacart.com/how-instacart-built-a-modern-search-infrastructure-on-postgres-c528fa601d54 https://tech.instacart.com/how-instacart-built-a-modern-sear... Beyond these two benefits, then the added benefits are: - Infrastructure simplification (no need for ETL) - Lower costs Speaking the wire protocol is nice, but it's not worth much.
