Proteomics search engine written in Rust
Is this a posting list? There is a lot of bioinformatics in this post, but if I squint, some of the problems do look like general information retrieval problems. Even the discussion of ordering the arrays by mass sounds like search relevance scores and makes me wonder if it makes sense to try to get something off the shelf like meillisearch/milli or tantavy to support this use case.

Zettelkasten Options
I'm currently not using any tool, although I am playing around with binding Milli and the most up-to-date Mentat fork to emacs with emacs-module-rs.

Meilisearch, the Rust search engine, just raised $5M
Yeah, we have already done that, the internal engine is called milli and could even be published on crates.io one day! The issue is with the design of the storage system itself, we use LMDB right now but maybe we can find another way to index faster and to be more oriented to distributed systems.

MeiliSearch v0.21, the long-awaited update of our search engine in Rust is out!
You can look at the milli repository this is the library that we use and work on. MeiliSearch is the HTTP actix-web based server that serves the milli indices.
- MeiliSearch needs your help, an undefined behavior can be the cause of a strange bug

What's everyone working on this week (17/2021)?
This library is the main bottleneck of the new MeiliSearch search engine. We will soon release a beta version, keep watching!

FlowDiver: The Road to SSR - Part 1
Disregarding props-drilling technique in favor of a more reliable and elegant solution we looked for inspiration elsewhere. Another project of ours .find was using Typesense/Algolia components, which looked a bit like black-box/magic, but at the same time provided a clean approach to build complex and highly customizable solutions.

Website Search Hurts My Feelings
There are actually plenty of non-ES products that are way easier to integrate and tune (and get better results with less effort).
- Typesense (https://github.com/typesense/typesense)
- Algolia
- Google Programmable Search Engine (https://programmablesearchengine.google.com/about/)
- Remote Machine Learning and Searching on a Raspberry Pi 5

DNS record "hn.algolia.com" is gone
If you like your penny take a look at Typesense https://typesense.org/ - nothing to complain here. Especially nothing complain about pricing.

Vector databases: analyzing the trade-offs
I work on Typesense [1] (historically considered an open source alternative to Algolia).
We then launched vector search in Jan 2023, and just last week we launched the ability to generate embeddings from within Typesense.
You'd just need to send JSON data, and Typesense can generate embeddings for your data using OpenAI, PaLM API, or built-in models like S-BERT, E-5, etc (running on a GPU if you prefer) [2]
You can then do a hybrid (keyword + semantic) search by just sending the search keywords to Typesense, and Typesense will automatically generate embeddings for you internally and return a ranked list of keyword results weaved with semantic results (using Rank Fusion).
You can also combine filtering, faceting, typo tolerance, etc - the things Typesense already had.

Creating an advanced search engine with PostgreSQL
For something small with a minimal footprint, I'd recommend Typesense. https://github.com/typesense/typesense

Obsidian Publish full text search
I haven’t used Publish, but I’d assume you could use something like https://typesense.org/ to index and search the vault.

DynamoDB search options
A cheaper option would be to use https://typesense.org. You can use DynamoDb streams to automatically load records. It has worked well for me.
