I do not understand why they built Elasticsearch. I&amp;#x27;ve read in a couple places you need like 32GB of RAM[0] just to run this thing to do queries, and having crashed Kibana &amp;#x2F; Elasticsearch a dozen times I believe it&amp;#x27;s designed poorly. I had hoped I could drop in MongoDB instead, but saw no indication of this being a fluid change. How many resources are any of you allocating towards your &amp;#x27;ELK&amp;#x27; stack (I say &amp;#x27;ELK&amp;#x27; cause now they have other software in the mix)?&lt;p&gt;Needless to say, I rather build my own solution for logging instead using a database that&amp;#x27;s not in-house having experienced all of this.&lt;p&gt;[0]: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.elastic.co&amp;#x2F;guide&amp;#x2F;en&amp;#x2F;elasticsearch&amp;#x2F;guide&amp;#x2F;current&amp;#x2F;hardware.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.elastic.co&amp;#x2F;guide&amp;#x2F;en&amp;#x2F;elasticsearch&amp;#x2F;guide&amp;#x2F;current&amp;#x2F;...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh wow now it says 64GB of ram is the sweet spot.... What the heck is this thing doing that couldn&amp;#x27;t of been accomplished with MongoDB or PostgreSQL? I&amp;#x27;ve got busier data sets that don&amp;#x27;t need 16GB of RAM, and yes we pound the database with logs of sorts and query in all sorts of ways and still I don&amp;#x27;t get it... I wouldn&amp;#x27;t recommend this stack to a friend unless they&amp;#x27;ve got plenty of hardware to spare.</text></comment>
