Elasticsearch is very popular because it works well for generic searching and can be customized for lots of unique scenarios. There's competition on the infrastructure side using something other than Java/JVM though: For Rust, there's Toshi: https://github.com/toshi-search/Toshi which is built on top of Tantivy: https://github.com/tantivy-search/tantivy For C++, there's Xapiland: https://github.com/Kronuz/Xapiand For Go, there's Blast: https://github.com/mosuka/blast built on Bleve: https://github.com/blevesearch/bleve

Always nice to see more alternatives to Elasticsearch. That project could be so much better with some proper planning and focus. There's also Toshi: https://github.com/toshi-search/Toshi which is built on top of Tantivy: https://github.com/tantivy-search/tantivy And for C++, there's Xapiland: https://github.com/Kronuz/Xapiand And for Go, there's Blast: https://github.com/mosuka/blast built on Bleve: https://github.com/blevesearch/bleve
In Sonic: Fast, lightweight and schemaless search back end in Rust
