Searching 30 million records with java and manticore

[vad-babushkin]

I'm using Manticore Search Server with the Java client for structured and scalable search across user files. It handles 30 million records with great speed and power. The product helps me solve my tasks well, and that’s what matters.
I found Manticore about 10 years ago when I was looking into full-text search engines — didn’t use it then, but now it’s a key part of my stack (Java, Swing, SpringBoot, Manticore, Postgres, Lucene).

Thanks a lot for the detailed and thoughtful feedback!

You're absolutely right — full-text search is hard to get right, especially when you need relevance tuning, synonyms, typo tolerance, and so on. We built Manticore with exactly that in mind — to offer a fast, powerful, and developer-friendly tool that handles these challenges out of the box without requiring tons of configuration or a steep learning curve.

It’s great to hear that Manticore worked well for your use case with Russian text — support for different languages, including proper morphology, is something we’ve always considered important.

Thanks again for sharing your experience — and if you ever have questions or ideas, we’re always happy to hear from you!
