I have the same experience as Daphne. I’ve used SolR for more “document” / “content” / “Knowledge” search and Elastic as a Log store or Mongo replacement. SolR has more ways to return/injest data such as XML, JSON, or even CSV which is appealing. The binary protocol in SolrJ is also appealing because the updates / selects are fast.
Ultimately I think SolR is like a 18 wheel tractor trailer and Elastic is like a uhaul trucks and you can chain a bunch of them up to do what SolR does. -- Rahul Singh rahul.si...@anant.us Anant Corporation On Mar 22, 2018, 9:04 AM -0500, Liu, Daphne <daphne....@cevalogistics.com>, wrote: > I used Solr + Cassandra for Document search.
