Dear piler users,
starting with version 1.4.x both manticore and real time index are
supported.
Recently, I got a request to describe the procudere of such transition:
https://docs.mailpiler.com/piler-ee/migrate-sphinx-to-manticore/
Even though the docs has been created for the enterprise version, it
also applies
to the open source version. The bad news is that it requires a full
reindexing
of the archive.
I'd like to emphasize that sphinx still is and will be supported, so
switching from
sphinx to manticore is just an option, not a requirement to keep using
piler. And if
you want to switch to real time indexing and say goodbye to the periodic
indexer
cron jobs, you may achieve it by using either sphinx or manticore.
Btw. sphinx 3.5.1 has been released in this February, almost 2 years
after 3.4.1.
