Elastic Search Stability
I would rate the stability of Elastic Search at a solid nine out of ten. Throughout my usage, I didn't encounter any failures, errors, or unexpected shutdowns. It was a reliable experience, and the fact that it didn't stop working unexpectedly was a relief.
I would rate the stability a seven out of ten. We faced a few issues.

Elastic Enterprise Search is stable. On a scale of one to 10, with one being not very stable and 10 being very stable, I give Elastic Enterprise Search a nine.

We are still exploring the solution but find it to be very stable at the enterprise level. It is not a new product, its stability is trusted, and it is well suited for enterprise applications. Extra features are released with no stability issues.

The tool is stable but depends on your infrastructure. If you have slow disks, then the product will run out of space.

The stability is really good. We use it in a fully virtualized environment, and that's not a real recommendation from Elastic. However, even with how it's stored, even if it's not a recommendation, for this small environment we have here, it's stable enough. It's working.

Elastic ELK Elasticsearch is one of the most stable Big Data engines and the simplest to maintain and scale. Redundancy is built into the design so there is no single point of failure. We can configure a DR easily and if something goes wrong, we can restore the system into a brand new cluster in hours.

We haven't had any stability issues at all. You just have to make sure that you are ingesting the right amount of data and maintaining your cluster by clearing up all of the data regularly. We input some script that tells the solution to drop any data it sees that is older than three months. It's as simple as that, and we're very happy with it.
If you size your nodes properly, and a node drops or there is a problem, the product will still function. Last night, one of the nodes in my cluster crashed. I went in to check it and restarted the node, and the data appeared and everything was fine. I cannot say the same for a lot of other solutions.

It's very stable. The only thing that might happen is that sometimes when you do a search it will stress the machine a bit too much. If that happens, then it's a matter of, if you do it the wrong way, the machine gets stressed and then it slows down. However, it will not crash. It almost never crashes. You'll simply figure out that the machine is overwhelmed and take the stress off.
The problem, occasionally, is that it may become unresponsive, but it isn't really unresponsive, it's just that the system is overloaded. That can only happen if you do your database search in the wrong way. That's why, especially when you have a lot of data and are really concentrating a lot of data on a few machines, you have to be careful of what you're doing.
It's a very nice tool but you have to be a bit aware of how to deal with this, especially when you have a lot of data and you have limited processing capacity. If you have unlimited processing capacity you can do whatever you want with it. I personally can say that I've never seen a machine crash.

I have no complaints in terms of stability. However, you have to make sure you give Elastic Enterprise Search the minimum resources it requires. We have not seen any major issues that we would send back to the vendor or the solution maker. If there was an issue it most likely would be from the environment, depending on how it was deployed and how it was configured.

View full review »Occasionally when you're handling large data you get some out of memory exceptions from time to time. It happens when you're doing pairing. Sometimes a few shots will fail. These are all typically when you're doing things on cloud on a large scale they tend happen.
This is not exactly a stable solution, which is why we are considering another compatible tool, and whether we go on with Elasticsearch or change it.

This solution is stable, but at times the stack will freeze and you have to remove and recreate the cluster. It may be an issue related to AWS.

Up until this point, there have been a few times that we did have some issues and we did not know what went wrong. But we have a guy who is dedicated to managing the system now and it is running pretty well. At this point, we do not have to spend much time in administration and maintenance paying a lot of attention to it. I would say it is pretty stable, overall.
We have around five people involved in using the solution.
No issues. It is very stable.
