ArchiveBox: Open-source self-hosted web archiving
This is uncanny, I just discovered ArchiveBox earlier today and set up a self-hosted instance on some home hardware for a collection of bookmarks of useful guides, tutorials, and references I've collected over the years.
Setting it up on K8s with sonic [1] as the search backend and importing a few hundred URLs only took ~an hour or so, and the cached pages look great for the most part.

An alternative to Elasticsearch that runs on a few MBs of RAM
- Sonic (https://github.com/valeriansaliou/sonic)
There isn't enough out there comparing all these for the simple typical fuzzy search/search box usecase -- which I think is 80% of people doing search today.
Like other people are pointing out, most of these engines won't have all the features of ES (or more accurately Lucene) but I am pretty convinced that most of the time it doesn't actually matter and if someone is searching on your site excessively maybe there's a problem with your UX (unless you're a search engine or repository of information).

An alternative to Elasticsearch that runs on a few MBs of RAM
Somewhat related, this guy: https://github.com/mosuka/ seems to be very passionate about search service.
He built two distributed search services:
- https://github.com/mosuka/phalanx, written in Go.
- https://github.com/mosuka/bayard, written in Rust.

Postgres Full Text Search vs. the Rest
I wish we had an extension like ZomboDB but using a lighter search engine like https://github.com/quickwit-oss/quickwit, https://github.com/toshi-search/Toshi and https://github.com/mosuka/bayard
Here I'm listing engines based on https://github.com/quickwit-oss/tantivy - tantivy is comparable to Lucene in its scope - but I'm sure there are other engines that could tackle ElasticSearch.
Another thing that could happen is maybe directly embed tantivy in Postgres using an extension, perhaps this could be an option too.
