Overall Satisfaction with Elasticsearch
We're using Elasticsearch for indexing most of our data, allowing for blazing-fast searches. We store massive time-series data volumes from thousands of IoT sensors that Elasticsearch handles brilliantly, making metrics available in realtime. We're also running dashboards and canvas in Kibana, fed from Elasticsearch, which gets updated in realtime.
- Performance.
- Ease of set-up.
- Tuning for ingress performance can be tricky.
- Merged documents can become a bottleneck.
- It's simple and the fast set-up spares you lots of money on the set-up stage.
- Immediate results give back a lot without spending too much.
Elasticsearch is very well packed in a broad set of features, ranging from customization capabilities to security and add-ons, and also comes with a great visualization tool named Kibana. Most of the competitors are strong in some of these areas, but I know of no other that's so well balanced as Elasticsearch is.
