Excited! (Beard length may vary) https://t.co/nKs3R7GC8V

@doris_apache You should look into Elasticsearch Query Language or ES|QL. It is a piped query language that delivers ease of use and similar functionality to SQL https://t.co/jCr2M6NVCM

Spring AI 1.0 is out — congrats!
and yes, of course you can use it with elasticsearch:

Here is a talk I gave on Better Binary Quantization (BBQ) for vector search in Elasticsearch. For those that don't like reading blogs, or just want to know how bad the puns can really get, this talk is for you: https://t.co/ImJe9g6rX1

[Benjamin Trent @benwtrent]

🔥 As I said, we have been cooking! 🔥 Product Quantization is just too slow. Better Binary Quantization is faster than PQ is every metric with the same or better recall. https://t.co/azvdcUcsAR

Mega den?

[The Associated Press @AP]

A “mega den” of hundreds of rattlesnakes in Colorado is getting even bigger now that late summer is here and babies are being born. Thanks to live video, scientists watching the den are learning more about rattlesnakes, including how they care for their young.

the @StackOverflow developer survey of 2024 is out: https://t.co/53RwNj4oEu

specifically looking at the databases (blue is 2024, red is 2022):
1. don't bet against #postgresql
2. glad so see #elasticsearch holding up well while many others declined

@theoliveranwar Can you suggest a different exercise than leg extensions? I have been told these are very hard on your knees in particular ACL:

@jobergum @wabzqem Elasticsearch is 12x faster than OpenSearch without any configuration changes or "out-of-the-box"

[George Kobar @GeorgeKobar]

@jobergum I think you missed the point in the blog where we tested 3 items:
Elasticsearch ootb: ES out-of-the-box, with concurrent segment search;
OpenSearch ootb: without concurrent segment search enabled;
OpenSearch css: with concurrent segment search enabled

Example:

[George Kobar @GeorgeKobar]

@wabzqem @jobergum If you look at each of the results you'll see the results for all three:
Example:

[George Kobar @GeorgeKobar]

@wabzqem @jobergum OpenSearch doesn't have concurrent segment search on by default and has limitations. We tested:
ES out-of-the-box, with concurrent segment search;
OS ootb: without concurrent segment search enabled;
OS css: with concurrent segment search enabled
