When did this place become such a low effort brain dump? I can't believe I'm so annoyed by this question. Google. Make some educated trade-off decisions based on your context.

Use HN to poll for opinions and experiences from others, not for things that take 30 minutes to resolve.

I tend to agree with you, however google isn’t as straightforward as it used to be. Every developer and their mom has a blog these days, or a brand, whatever. Sometimes just cross referencing fundamentals and bonafides is a time sink.

That said, this question probably works better somewhere like Reddit programming or some IIRC where Elasticsearch hangs out. After going that route, it’s probably fine to poll here based on that research.

As much OP did lazy work by posting this question, I don’t think your response was fair or helpful in any way. In the end you didn’t add anything to the conversation either.

What can you add to this discussion? 0 context is provided. It's not even a properly formed question. As someone who's familiar with Lucene, Solr and ElasticSearch even if I wanted to help I can't.

Sometimes posts are shit, and it's OK to call it out to hopefully improve this site collectively.
