About Manticore Search
Manticore Search
Full-text search and data analytics
Manticore Search is an open source database for full-text, vector and hybrid search, with real-time indexing and SQL. The project describes it as an alternative to Elasticsearch, built to be fast and easy to use. It runs multi-threaded query execution across CPU cores, supports full-text search over small and large datasets, and combines full-text and vector retrieval in one query for hybrid search. Auto-embeddings generate vectors from text and can split long documents into chunks, stored in a float vector array, so relevant sections can be searched without chunking in the application. Conversational search can answer questions over vectorized tables using KNN retrieval, conversation history and an LLM, through a SQL CALL CHAT statement or an HTTP JSON /search endpoint. It offers row-wise storage for small and medium data and columnar storage, powered by the Manticore Columnar Library, for datasets too large for RAM. Secondary indexes use a piecewise geometric model index, and a cost-based query optimizer chooses plans. The README links to the website, downloads, documentation, courses, a forum, chat channels and a blog. Benchmark results are published in the README, and the project says they are workload specific.
