ElasticSearch is really just clustered Lucene with some nice features wrapping it. You can probably get away with something that also wraps lucene. Though elasticsearch has a dominant position precisely because it is quite full featured and easy to run.

Im afraid its a bit over simplification . For example - Aggregations in elasticsearch are not using lucene facets, but it just leverages the basic lucene mechanisms ( collector) .
