I can't wait until someone "Snowflake"s Elasticsearch and separates compute from storage.
There's not a great reason for there to be "shards" and "clusters". In 2021, I'd appreciate search running from object storage (e.g. S3), with a dynamic compute layer over the top providing all of the compute--especially with indexing being such a source of variable compute.
Also, why do we have to re-index all of the time? Most textual customization can happen at query time, with only a mild performance hit.
I'm curious if we ever truly get a cloud-native, easy-to-maintain search thing, or if we have to wait for ML to eat search in order to get nextgen tech.
