Native Android developer/Consultant for Appwise, I work on custom projects for clients.
PHP/JS (web) developer in my freetime. Trying to keep learning in an ever changing tech world.
Elasticsearch is a tried and true technology that has been around for a while and has a solid Ruby library. It is also a database that many of the major platforms like AWS and GCP support and host which allows greater flexibility when users decide they want to spin up their own communities.
It is also something I have worked extensively on in the past and that added experience was what allowed us to make this transition very quickly bc I knew exactly what needed to happen and how to do it. We considered other tools such as the new Redis search but the fact that it was so young and unfamiliar made us decide to stick with what we knew.

Great news!
Also wondering what was the reasoning for choosing Elasticsearch, I have recently learned about MeiliSearch and it looks very promising.
