@nickon said in Is thirty bees dead?:
elastics module
I do not agree with you. We divide the stores into tiny, medium and large ones.
I know Prestashop from version 1.2, I'm still in version 1.6.x
My store is growing strongly, currently this year I can have up to 30-40k of products. Elastic search is one of the main arguments of migration, why? Speed, expandability with real product recommendations! This means growth in sales for me. Of course, I am a developer and I can handle technology. Not everyone will benefit from elastic search, but as a medium store I am more willing to support the project financially than those who only want for free. Crowdfunding for such modules is the best option.
I am more worried about the pace of development, for me the migration of my eco system is 1-2 months of work. So a lot of time investment. I have not done migration tests yet, but I am looking at the project for quite a long time. From my perspective, the online store is just the front of the entire system. Ordering, customer service happens elsewhere.
Why do I think about thirtybees?
- cache of entire pages (currently the store supports two servers behind the load balancer haproxy) for redis.
- elastic search
- tests
- source code
