Re:Web search 30M rows sub-second, cheaply by acdha on Sunday November 22, 2015 @07:36PM (#10612194)
ElasticSearch is usually less work to install or manage than the average node app – it completely belies the Java stereotypes.

The Lucene-based search engines are also very well optimized. I'd tend to think of a 30M row dataset as a single machine size unless you need failover or the records are quite large.

Wow, that is definitely the opposite of true.
