rust-rocksdb VS elasticsearch-mapper-attachments

Final touches for lila-openingexplorer, a new chess opening database for lichess.org. Uses axum and rocksdb.

The most control you can probably get is from embeddable kv store, like https://github.com/spacejam/sled or https://github.com/rust-rocksdb/rust-rocksdb . Then you can encode entity version as a key.

I just released portal a full-text search web service that is a competitor for ElasticSearch and MeiliSearch written in Rust. It is simple, blazing fast, and under 500 LOC! Portal supports 87 natural languages, JWTs, SSL, and JSON clients. It is built on Sonic, Broker, Tide, and RocksDB.

The increasing complexity of modern systems led to the rise of AIOps (Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations) and observability practices. AIOps leveraged machine learning algorithms to automate problem detection, analysis, and resolution. Observability focused on gaining insights into system behaviour through metrics, logs, and traces. As a result, tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) gained popularity.

My only experience with NetFlow collection is on my home firewall/router running pfSense Community Edition, which is free to download and can be installed on a wide assortment of X86 hardware. I installed the Softflowd package, which exports NetFlow data to a dedicated Elasticsearch/Logstash/Kibana (ELK) server on my LAN. I believe Security Onion and ElastiFlow also can be NetFlow collectors.

Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana (ELK) Stack: An open source suite of tools for log management and analysis, providing real-time insights into security events.

Recently I have taken an interest in big data. https://neo4j.com/ , https://cassandra.apache.org/ , https://clickhouse.com/, https://www.elastic.co/ - are all databases I have experience with. Neo4j and Cassandra only as a hobby, but Clickhouse I have used in production, and Elasticsearch I have used for some 7 years now.

Buy an enterprise-class, wired router like the Negate 2100 ($349 USD), which runs pfSense, and configure the Deco AXE5400 device(s) to operate in Access Point Mode. Then install the Softflowd package through the pfSense web UI. Softflowd will collect and export NetFlow data to a NefFlow collector, which is the separate computer/VM/container referred to above, running software like Security Onion, ElastiFlow, or Elasticsearch/Logstash/Kibana (ELK).

If you’re unaware, elastic search is some like enterprise level search shit. They just put it in a theme. https://www.elastic.co

Now I know I've got some data I could use, I now need to find a platform that I can use to analyse the data coming from the Forem API. I did consider some other pieces of software, such as Google BigQuery (with looker studio) and ElasticSearch (with Kibana), I ultimately went with OpenSearch which is essentially a forked version of ElasticSearch maintained by AWS. The main reasons are that I could host it locally for free (unlike BigQuery). I do have some prior experience with both elastic (back when it was called ELK) and OpenSearch, but my work with OpenSearch was far more recent, so I decided to go with that.

Monitor your infrastructure and APIs: Use tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, or ElasticSearch to monitor your infrastructure and APIs. This will help you detect and respond to security incidents in real-time.
