Elasticsearch is a highly scalable search engine and simple to deploy. One of the challenges is to keep the data source (e.g. RDBMS) and the Elasticsearch index synchronized all the time. Hibernate ORM is very popular to persist data in RDBMSes from Java. Wouldn’t it be good if Hibernate ORM could automatically push all changes to Elasticsearch? Wouldn’t it be good if Elasticsearch queries could return domain model objects like a HQL query does?
