🦔 Fast, lightweight & schema-less search backend. An alternative to Elasticsearch that runs on a few MBs of RAM.
Disclaimer: I work on an open source alternative to Algolia called Typesense [1]
If I had a dollar for every time I've heard Algolia is expensive! And if I had a dollar for every time I've said that statement!
If cost is an issue, definitely checkout Typesense. You can self-host it for free, or use the hosted Cloud version. In either case, I've seen savings of up to 96% in some cases compared to Algolia's pricing.
