When entering any questionable law enforcement situation (TSA, walking near a protest, traveling internationally) I always switch my phone to not use TouchID. Say what you will.

+1 for something along these lines to be available in all vendor's dev tools!

I tried to implement a system like this once, with the goal being to reduce the amount of equipment and clutter on the service counter, but ran into issues of trust. I learned very quickly that if you remove the cash from sight of the custo

Wait, you mean the millions, possibly billions spent already haven't done a thing? Shocking! And now you can pay (TSAPre) to bypass the security theater essentially proving that the whole thing is a massive sham. I'm all for sec

Have you checked out Crate.IO? https://crate.io/overview as an "SQL for Elasticsearch" option.

At least they didn't update the power port...again.

Without violating your confidentiality, can you share what version of ES you experienced these failures with? I have also experienced this first hand, but since 0.9x and 1.0x a TON of work has been done on both OOM (one of the leading caus

Lots of great questions here. Don't forget that you can also ask detailed questions in our Google Group: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/crateio

True. There is an elected master node and you can configure a cluster to have master-only (non-data) nodes, data-only nodes (non-master eligible), or both. Even still, and even if you choose to set up a cluster this way, every node can pe

Like Jodok says, we don't recommend this, but you could do it. What this would mean that if you destroy a container, you also destroy the data. This would cause your cluster to have to rebalance itself adding IOPs overhead. When yo

By shared-nothing, we mean that no node is special, no node is indispensable. Unlike other popular NoSQL databases, we don't have different classes of nodes. The persistent data is distributed across the cluster, and nodes communicate

Yes, and while there are still cases (see the link @jodok supplied below) a ton of work was done in ES v1.4.x (which Crate uses) and even more issues were closed in ES v1.5 which we're working on supporting. With the amount of attentio

That's part of it, but not the whole picture. For example, we mostly bypass the ES query engine and go directly to Lucene. Queries are not simply translated to ES query syntax. Also, we've done a lot more work than simply pasti

Crate is a database engine that uses Lucene for storage and leverages portions of Elastic for cluster management. It is a NoSQL storage engine that gives you an SQL API (via REST). It does not support JOINs yet but this work is well und

Hi, Spanky from Crate.io here. We still maintain the PyPI portion of the site at https://crate.io/packages As for crates.io, I guess their entitled to choose their own name & domain, but I admit it is confusing.

At Crate.IO, we've been playing around with deploying our clusters using Machine & Swarm, so this is pretty good use case: https://crate.io/blog/deploying-crate-with-docker-machine-sw...

Basically right now, you can't run two third party services at once, because they both need to wrap the Docker commands. Now you can use multiple services at once (Flocker, Weave, etc.) True that it's just a transforming proxy,

Super excited to have won the Startup Battle! Crate is a distributed database that uses a SQL interface to access Lucene-based data. You could think of it as "SQL for Elasticsearch" if you must, but it's much more than that
