Hi, I am looking at implementing ES to index & query data that I get from my SQL Server databases/tables. I was initially using river to read data from Sql server tables but one of the developers in my team recommended looking at using logstash. Can anyone comment to any benefits of using one over another? I have not been able to find any documentation regarding reading data from SQL server using logstash [http://logstash.net/docs/1.3.2/](http://logstash.net/docs/1.3.2/). Can someone point me to a guide on how to get started with logstash & sql server. Thanks J -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hey, maybe you should ask your developers, why they recommended logstash for this, I cant follow here (perhaps there is some export functionality in your SQL server, which an input of logstash can use?). Would be interested in reasons in this case. --Alex On Wed, Jan 8, 2014 at 5:26 PM, jsp [jayasunderam@gmail.com](mailto:jayasunderam@gmail.com) wrote: > Hi, > I am looking at implementing ES to index & query data that I get from my > SQL Server databases/tables.

Currently logstash provides an api to get data through sqlite. And have been looking at how it is being used for sqlite and will try to replicate that for Sql Server. Will post code if I get it working.

IMHO, some options: - ETL tool like Talend - a batch process you need to write - modify application which create those data and push to Elasticsearch from it I prefer the latter as your search engine will be well synchronized with your database. Also, it will be a gain, database performance wise, as you don't need to read again your DB to inject into ES.

i agree with David suggestions, here is link to topic that is also touching river deprecation (with suggested replacement(s)): [https://groups.google.com/d/msg/elasticsearch/-nZQheK0J-g/1xhVm9Y5\_dgJ](https://groups.google.com/d/msg/elasticsearch/-nZQheK0J-g/1xhVm9Y5_dgJ) BTW, if you really feel like river is the best solution for you, then you should go for it even if elasticsearch team will deprecate rivers from the core implementation, there will be some community contributed solution to replace it i think the amount of elasticsearch applications using rivers is too big to get rid of them completely On Saturday, January 11, 2014 3:12:53 AM UTC, jsp wrote: > Thanks Karl, > Do you have any recommendation for alternatives to using rivers. i want > to read data from sql db/tables. > thanks > jay > > On Friday, 10 January 2014 13:55:29 UTC-8, Karol Gwaj wrote: > > > Consider the fact that rivers could be deprecated in future versions of > > elasticsearch: > > > > [Sign Up | LinkedIn](http://www.linkedin.com/groups/Official-guide-writing-ElasticSearch-rivers-3393294.S.268274223) > > > > On Wednesday, January 8, 2014 4:26:58 PM UTC, jsp wrote: > > > > > Hi, > > > I am looking at implementing ES to index & query data that I get from my > > > SQL Server databases/tables.

I just started a gathering framework plugin for fetching and indexing data to Elasticsearch, with scalable components. It's not complete yet of course. Next, I intend to create an alternative to the JDBC river, and if that works out well, for other kinds of rivers too 🙂 > **[jprante/elasticsearch-gatherer](https://github.com/jprante/elasticsearch-gatherer)** > > elasticsearch-gatherer - Gatherers are scalable components for fetching and indexing data into Elasticsearch.

This is a little late but. I agree with the third option, if you can. But you should publish to a queue and then that goes to ES. That way you can use a 2 phase commit to the DB and to the queue. Even with option 1 and 2 ... use a queue. Talend has built in stuff to do this because it is more than just ETL (it is an ESB where ETL is just a use case) On Saturday, January 11, 2014 1:47:40 AM UTC-5, David Pilato wrote: > IMHO, some options: > > - ETL tool like Talend > - a batch process you need to write > - modify application which create those data and push to Elasticsearch > from it > > I prefer the latter as your search engine will be well synchronized with > your database. > Also, it will be a gain, database performance wise, as you don't need to > read again your DB to inject into ES. > > My 2 cents > > -- > David 😉 > Twitter : @dadoonet / @elasticsearchfr / @scrutmydocs > > Le 11 janv. 2014 à 04:12, jsp \<[jayasu...@gmail.com](mailto:jayasu...@gmail.com) \\> a > écrit : > > Thanks Karl, > Do you have any recommendation for alternatives to using rivers. i want > to read data from sql db/tables. > thanks > jay > > On Friday, 10 January 2014 13:55:29 UTC-8, Karol Gwaj wrote: > > > Consider the fact that rivers could be deprecated in future versions of > > elasticsearch: > > > > [Sign Up | LinkedIn](http://www.linkedin.com/groups/Official-guide-writing-ElasticSearch-rivers-3393294.S.268274223) > > > > On Wednesday, January 8, 2014 4:26:58 PM UTC, jsp wrote: > > > > > Hi, > > > I am looking at implementing ES to index & query data that I get from my > > > SQL Server databases/tables.
