Search as a Framework
March 26, 2016
A number of search and content processing vendors suggest their information access system can function as a framework. The idea is that search is more than a utility function.
If the information in the article “Abusing Elasticsearch as a Framework” is spot on, a non search vendor may have taken an important step to making an assertion into a reality.
The article states:
Crate is a distributed SQL database that leverages Elasticsearch and Lucene. In it’s infant days it parsed SQL statements and translated them into Elasticsearch queries. It was basically a layer on top of Elasticsearch.
The idea is that the framework uses discovery, master election, replication, etc along with the Lucene search and indexing operations.
Crate, the framework, is a distributed SQL database “that leverages Elasticsearch and Lucene.”
