Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?

Why HN links it

Only one comment, from a thread on central logging with open source software, discusses ElasticSearch and Sphinx. It does not comment on the blog's writing, so HN readers' view of the post is unclear.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

What Hacker News says?

  1. What is the difference of this to doppio? A new approach from some of the doppio authors? Also if someone says this is useless an interesting use case could be e.g. a hybrid navigation application https://karussell.wordpress.com/2014/05/04/graphhopper-in-th... or portable native apps using a webview BTW: I got lots of errors in the Firefox console saying 'Error: Assertion failed: A non-running thread has an expired…

  5. We've a similar example using real world travel times here: https://graphhopper.com/api/1/examples/#optimization (use the temporary API key: 7e76e228-d7fa-4795-a8c5-ad1048de42f1) This demonstrates that jsprit and GraphHopper combined (both open source) can be used to achieve similar performance with a lot more precise output (due to read real world data) and if you need to calculate the optimal route with multiple v…

ES is basically a usability wrapper around Lucene. I've heard that Sphinx is better for a single node configuration, it's faster and uses less resources, but clustering with Sphinx is apparently t…
