Did you know that SQLite contains a full text search engine? The SQLite FTS4 and FTS5 Extensions allow you to perform full-text searches on documents loaded into SQLite.
And since rqlite uses SQLite as its database engine, rqlite makes it really easy to deploy a highly-available search engine – and one you can interact with using SQL and HTTP.

This is the last part of a 3-part series “Designing and building a search system for log data”. Be sure to check out part 1 and part 2.
In the last post we examined the design and implementation of Ekanite, a system for indexing log data, and making that data available for search in near-real-time. Is this final post let’s see Ekanite in action.
