Five years ago Manticore began as a fork of an open source version of the once popular search engine Sphinx Search. We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, three C++ developers, a support engineer, a power user of Sphinx Search / backend team lead, an experienced manager, a mother of five helping us part-time, and a ton of bugs, crashes, and technical debts. So we got a shovel and other digging tools and started working to get it up to the search engine industry standards. Not that Sphinx was impossible to use, but many things were missing, and existing features weren’t quite stable or mature. And we had pushed it about as far as we could. So after 5 years and hundreds of new users, we’re ready to say that Manticore Search can be used as an alternative to Elasticsearch for both full-text search and (now) data analytics too.
