Under the hood, ParadeDB is built by integrating Tantivy (a Lucene-inspired Rust search library) inside Postgres. This is to say: I agree with you -- We're not trying to claim that Postgres itself is an alternative to Lucene, but rather that something like Lucene can be integrated inside Postgres so that you can get the power of both in a single system (or in a cluster of Postgres instances)
- monadicmonad 7mo agowhy do I want them in a single system?
- ddorian43 7mo agoIts easier to have 1 system until a certain scale.
- inbx0 7mo ago- saves infra costs - saves infra headaches - devs only need to be experts in one system (or well I guess one and a half, probably there's something to learn about ParadeDB too, but probably less than in learning Lucine) - no need to worry about keeping data up to date in the separate seach system - all data is available when you want to do new queries that you handn't thought of when implementing the data transfer/indexing
