Please, tell about the success story about ES usage on production

Alexander,

What made bobo and zoie unmaintenable? How is elasticsearch more
maintenable?

You said the bobo/zoie solution "lightning fast." Was it significantly
faster than elasticsearch?

Thanks.

We are using it as a product search engine, you can see it live athttp://www.lusini.de

Document count is quite low, more than 200k documents, and currently
on one node. We never had performance issues. We are doing lots of
facetting queries with about ten facets and of course some filters -
queries get a bit slower but are still fast enough for us.

In order to get the product data into elasticsearch we have
implemented a river, which pulls every n seconds for updates and is
streaming JSON data, so we do not have to wait until we got all the
data, when downloading big data. We have several thousand updates a
day (more likely ten thousand).

Before elasticsearch we had a lightning fast but unmaintenable self
written solution based on bobo and zoie, which we switched in order to
have a more simpler solution, which is understood well by all
developers.

Of course we do not expose elasticsearch directly to browsers, we have
another component in between, which also can do stuff like redirecting
certain search terms to landing pages.
To be honest, I cannot tell, how much requests are coming in per day,
but I guess it is somewhat below 100k.

Hope this helps. In case of questions, feel free to ask.
