In the realm of database search engines, “Manticore Search” emerges as a formidable contender, challenging the status quo with its exceptional speed and cost-efficiency.
This open-source powerhouse stands as a robust alternative to Elasticsearch, offering blazing-fast performance that’s reproducibly ahead of the competition.
In this article, we’ll delve into the unique features and capabilities of Manticore Search, exploring why it has become the go-to choice for organizations seeking unparalleled search and database performance.
Join us on a journey to unlock the power of Manticore Search and revolutionize your data retrieval experience.
Manticore Search is an easy to use open source fast database for search. Good alternative for Elasticsearch. What distinguishes it from other solutions is:
Craigslist, Socialgist, PubChem, Rozetka and many others use Manticore for efficient searching and stream filtering.
Manticore Search was forked from Sphinx 2.3.2 in 2017.
Docker image is available on Docker Hub.
To experiment with Manticore Search in Docker just run:
docker run -e EXTRA=1 --name manticore --rm -d manticoresearch/manticore && until docker logs manticore 2>&1 | grep -q "accepting connections"; do sleep 1; done && docker exec -it manticore mysql && docker stop manticore
You can then: create a table, add data and run searches. For example:
create table movies(title text, year int) morphology='stem_en' html_strip='1' stopwords='en';
insert into movies(title, year) values ('The Seven Samurai', 1954), ('Bonnie and Clyde', 1954), ('Reservoir Dogs', 1992), ('Airplane!', 1980), ('Raging Bull', 1980), ('Groundhog Day', 1993), ('<a href="http://google.com/">Jurassic Park</a>', 1993), ('Ferris Bueller\'s Day Off', 1986);
select highlight(), year from movies where match('the dog');
select highlight(), year from movies where match('days') facet year;
select * from movies where match('google');
Note that upon exiting the MySQL client, the Manticore container will be stopped and removed, resulting in no saved data, so use this way only for testing / sandboxing purposes.
