After reviewing over 10 search engines, we selected Meilisearch despite its major drawback in PostgreSQL database synchronization. In this post, we share our experience and explain how we resolved this issue using Golang and pgx.

We filtered out PISA Search and Manticore because neither of them offers search-as-you-type and facet search features

Manticore does support facet search and it's quite powerful in Manticore:

• docs - https://manual.manticoresearch.com/Searching/Faceted_search#Faceted-search
• interactive course - https://play.manticoresearch.com/faceting/

Search-as-you-type depends more on the client, not on the backend. However, Manticore provides the autocomplete and fuzzy features (both in beta stage though). More info here manticoresoftware/manticoresearch#1497 (comment)
