feature request #4182
Updated by Andreas Müller over 7 years ago
**Links:** * [elasticsearch](http://www.elasticsearch.org/) * on how to let hibernate send modified entities to a different search backend, slor in this case: http://anotherjavaday.blogspot.co.il/2012/01/combining-power-of-hibernate-search-and.html * https://github.com/55social/hibernate-search-elasticsearch-connector **Questions** * We need to run searches across multiple indexes, is elasticsearch supporting this? Currently we have our own implementation for this: `LuceneMultiSearch` * Our own `LucenSearch` class is capable of returning lucene documents together with cdm entities in the same response. With elastic search this will no longer be possible. So we would have to send two requests: One request to do the search and a second one to fetch cdm entities, if necessary. * It will be necessary to install a separate Elasticsearch server in parallel to the cdmserver. This makes the initial installation more complex. Can we bundle the cdm server and elastic search together in a single install package. How will this work in workshops. Simple HQL based search as fall back?
