  • Typesense

    Open Source alternative to Algolia + Pinecone and an Easier-to-Use alternative to ElasticSearch ⚡ 🔍 ✨ Fast, typo tolerant, in-memory fuzzy Search Engine for building delightful search experiences

  • I’m also checking out Typesense as a possibility for replacing Elastic: https://typesense.org/

  • rum

    RUM access method - inverted index with additional information in posting lists (by postgrespro)

  • If you need ranking, and you have the possibility to install PostgreSQL extensions, then you can consider an extension providing RUM indexes: https://github.com/postgrespro/rum. Otherwise, you'll have to use an "external" FTS engine like ElasticSearch.
