  • columnar

    Manticore Columnar Library

  • Speaking about the other differences, the most important is probably the same as if we compare Manticore with Typesense: MeiliSearch isn't supposed to be used in a big data scenario. They say that the max index size is 100 GB and that 8.6MB dataset when indexed by MeiliSearch takes 300+ MB of RAM . Manticore Search for example is used by Craigslist that would probably go broke if they had to spend 300MB of RAM for each 9MB of data. And we made it even better when we developed the columnar storage.

  • hub

  • Was looking for some alternatives that would work better with this software https://github.com/lbryio/hub Currently issue is that during data indexing memory usage can reach 14 GB i'm courius how Manticore would perform? + I think replacing this ES proprietary software would be great for open source projects :)

  • beir

    A Heterogeneous Benchmark for Information Retrieval. Easy to use, evaluate your models across 15+ diverse IR datasets.

  • But there's for example BEIR that compared BM25 vs state of the art ML language models and it turned out BM25 is in average better than all of them unless you rerank top 100 results from Elasticsearch using the language models. With Manticore you can get even better relevance than with Elasticsearch. We made a pull-request to BEIR to demonstrate that https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_ZyYkPJ_K0st9FJBrjbZqX14nmCCPVlE_y3a_y5KkYI/edit#gid=0

  • manticoresearch

    Easy to use open source fast database for search | Good alternative to Elasticsearch now | Drop-in replacement for E in the ELK soon

  • Unfortunately not. I've created an issue about it https://github.com/manticoresoftware/manticoresearch/issues/839 . Please subscribe to it to be informed.
