It is still very much a work in progress but it can guide you in your exploration.

== FAQ

=== Why Hibernate Search 6 (and not a fully supported version)?

To optimize the Hibernate Search bootstrap for Quarkus, the Hibernate team had to reorganize things a bit (collect the metadata offline, start the Elasticsearch client later...).

This couldn't be done in the 5.x code base so we decided to go with the in progress Hibernate Search 6.

=== Can I really use it?

While Hibernate Search 6 is still at Alpha stage, the code is of production quality and can be relied on.

What we don't guarantee is that there might be API changes along the way to the final release of Hibernate Search 6 and you might have to adapt your code.

If it is not a major issue for you, then sure you can use it.

=== Why Elasticsearch only?

Hibernate Search supports both a Lucene backend and an Elasticsearch backend.

In the context of Quarkus and to build microservices, we thought the latter would make more sense.
Thus we focused our efforts on it.

We don't have plans to support the Lucene backend in Quarkus for now.
