Most of the time when you hear Tantivy is faster than Lucene for search, it’s from the Tantivy team (or us at ParadeDB). This time it’s from @jpountz (a Lucene committer), explaining where Tantivy wins and what Lucene is doing about it. https://t.co/occSrqD6sp

In 2023, the Tantivy folks started publishing comparative benchmarks between Apache Lucene, Tantivy and PISA. As Lucene enjoys a good reputation as a search library, many folks published benchmarks...

A little bit of lexical search, a little bit of semantic search. But how do you combine them? We wrote the Missing Manual for Hybrid Search in Postgres so you don't need to work it out yourself. https://t.co/ndmK58qNbj

Another look at the v2 API, this time fuzzy searches which allow for an edit distance (we use Levenshtein distances).

We're still working on the final details, but the query part of our v2 API dropped a while ago. Here's an example of a proximity search 👀

Elasticsearch optimizes for search at scale but isn't transactional; Postgres optimizes for correctness but isn't great at searching. ParadeDB builds on Postgres to give you real-time search with ACID guarantees. Why would you want that? Read on ... https://t.co/rus73hc2RU

Check out this deep dive into bit-packing integer arrays in #Rust without giving up mutability or O(1) random access. https://t.co/5HF3qwyXaM Cool to see the same tricks have already shown up in #Tantivy, the @rustlang Lucene alternative.

Podcast alert! A fantastic podcast by our engineer, @ankitml, on how Instacart built search on Postgres, where the future of search infrastructure is going, and why that led him to join us at ParadeDB:

People who use Elasticsearch fall into two camps: those who know it shouldn’t be used as a source of truth, and those who haven’t thought it through… Seriously though, if you use Elastic as a database, we’d love to hear about it. https://t.co/5aSjr3lDag

Elasticsearch is a search engine, not a database. Here's why it falls short as a system of record.

fascinating read about how @paradedb are going deeper into block storage to leverage more of Postgres' default feature set (physical replication, buffer cache, etc) ↓ postgres becoming the default database engine + pg_search becoming the default search tool for devs
