Is Silota based on Lucene (or ES or Solr)? Because you don't seem to mention it. And if it is not, there is not enough information to make an informed choice. I don't see any information on tokenization nor does your own site seems to have a search engine to check (dogfood?).
- arafalov 13y agoNever mind. Seems to have missed (hosted ES) point. I would make frankly make that (or at least Lucene mention) a selling point as opposed to a buried one. That way people who actually know what to look for in a search engine know what's under the covers.
- gane5h 13y agoGood feedback. Still iterating on the messaging – at this stage, we are still figuring out how to describe the product. When you begin incorporating ES into your application, roughly you’d be thinking about: 1. Figuring out the structure of your data and translating that into ES’s mapping 2. Learning the query syntax (the ES docs assume you already know Lucene, not usually the case.) 3. Setup an ingest workflow and keeping your indexed data in sync 4. Securing your cluster if you want to hit ES directly from the browser/API client 5. Maintaining your cluster Silota attempts to solve 3, 4, 5. Improving documentation helps with 2.
