I’ve worked with both pg_search and direct tsvector usage in PostgreSQL. pg_search is great for quick setup and convenience, especially in Rails apps, but if you need more control and performance, tsvector with custom indexes can be better. External engines like Elasticsearch are powerful for large-scale or more complex search needs, but they add infrastructure overhead. Depends on your project size and how advanced your search features need to be.
