Search Engine Solutions: Algolia vs Elasticsearch

Both Algolia and Elasticsearch are powerful search engines that help websites find and show information quickly. Algolia is a cloud-based service that's easier to set up and mainly focuses on fast website search, while Elasticsearch is more flexible and can handle bigger amounts of data. These tools help developers add search features to their websites, like product search in online stores or content search in blogs.
