Side by side with Elasticsearch and Solr

Side by side with Elasticsearch and Solr by Rafał Kuć and Radu Gheorghe.

Abstract:

We all know that Solr and Elasticsearch are different, but what those differences are and which solution is the best fit for a particular use case is a frequent question. We will try to make those differences clear, not by showing slides and compare them, but by showing online demo of both Elasticsearch and Solr:

  • Set up and start both search servers. See what you need to prepare and launch Solr and Elasticsearch
  • Index data right after the server was started using the “schemaless” mode
  • Create index structure and modify it using the provided API
  • Explore different query use cases
  • Scale by adding and removing nodes from the cluster, creating indices and managing shards. See how that affects data indexing and querying.
  • Monitor and administer clusters. See what metrics can be seen out of the box, how to get them and what tools can provide you with the graphical view of all the goodies that each search server can provide.

Slides

Very impressive split-screen comparison of Elasticsearch and Solr by two presenters on the same data set.

I first saw this at: Side-By-Side with Solr and Elasticsearch : A Comparison by Charles Ditzel.
