The hybrid search will be also part of | the v1.6 release in january. I took time to write those three | blog posts. | | What do you think about the blog posts content? | sroussey wrote: | Is there a way to make this a bundled library (more like | sqlite) than a server (more like postgresql)? | | I want to have something running local and bundled into an | app for friends, maybe more. | _a_a_a_ wrote: | It's information-dense and informative (also over my head). As | such it feels absolutely nothing like product placement. I | think you're being needlessly cynical. | ko_pivot wrote: | This is great. The only major thing Meilisearch is missing after | hybrid search is introduced IMO is high availability. Without | clustering, it's hard to run any meaningful production workloads | and there doesn't seem to be an online upgrades story. | Kerollmops wrote: | Indeed, you are right about this. This is why we will release | geo-replication on the cloud in Q1 next year. We heard you and | worked hard on both of those features. We already have a great | working proof-of-concept. | goestoo wrote: | I tested Meilisearch last year indexing 10mil documents it took 2 | days! same dataset with the same server specs it took less than 2 | hours to index in elasticsearch. | Kerollmops wrote: | Thank you for the feedback. You should probably look at our | blog post explaining how to index in smarter way [1]. You | should probably come and talk to us on Discord. We work with | MrBeast and they don't have any issue indexing millions of | YouTube videos everyday. | | Ho! And just to tease you a little bit. We highly improved the | indexing speed of Meilisearch v1.6 (january 24). Here is a | teasing tweet [2]. | | [1]: https://blog.meilisearch.com/best-practices-for-faster- | index...

It only took about 1 hour for about 12 million | documents on a 16GB/4vCPU. In your case, maybe it was a config | issue? Or, an old version? | Kerollmops wrote: | And when you'll use the v1.6 you see a much better indexation | speed. | | https://x.com/kerollmops/status/1734576622303404317 | wg0 wrote: | I'm thinking of putting this for software documentation. The idea | is that content is all markdown in Astro or Seveltkit with SSG | (static site generation) and then Index it all at build time and | then search it all via Meliesearch. ___________________________________________________________________ (page generated 2023-12-24 23:00 UTC)
