I am currently using Watson based search in my Django backend. I am planning to migrate it to Django-Haystack - Elastisearch stack. But then I have come across Typesense. I am impressed with its wide set of features, performance and pricing. Is there any plan to support Django Haystack with Typesense as search backend ?

Hi Arun, we don't have any work planned for an integration with Haystack.

Ok. Let me move my current code to Haystack- Elastisearch and then explore typesense if any need for performance or specific feature come up.

Do you have performance benchmarking with Elastisearch ? https://typesense.org/typesense-vs-algolia-vs-elasticsearch-vs-meilisearch/ I don't see performance metrics in this table.

Thanks for the prompt reponse.

Benchmarks are tricky and depends a lot on workload, data type and hardware. So we've refrained from doing that.
