Has anyone used Milvus and is it better than elastic search?

Need to shut the data scientist on my team's mouth because he keeps insisting on using milvus and it's the worst to work with. Is it actually better than elastic search with knn search? Is pinecone better than either?

Depends on the use case I guess

just knn search with attribute filtering. Elastic can do both and index creation is faster in elastic. I don't see how milvus is any better. Which one handles higher traffic better? Both can scale horizontally and take on read heavy traffic?

Milvus index creation takes forever. Like, days.

Milvus will scale much further than elastic, but might not be needed based on your use case Pinecone is better than both imo

How is Pinecone better than Elasticsearch? Genuinely curious.
