alt Hacker NewsIf you already have Elasticsearch, it makes sense to continue utilizing it.
Saying, “just use SQLite” completely dismisses the idea that this is a _shared_ memory across teams. The ability to easily connect to the remote service and have everything “just work” pays dividends when you have dozens or hundreds of users.
I’m literally laughing at the root comment’s idea of proposing we replace ES with SQLite and imagining how that architecture review would go. Not everyone is doing MB/GB scale workloads.
