HOW WE REPLACED ELASTICSEARCH AND MONGODB WITH RUST AND ROCKSDB

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Radar, a geolocation infrastructure company, replaced its Elasticsearch and MongoDB setup with HorizonDB, a new geospatial database written in Rust. This change was due to the high costs and operational complexities of the previous system. HorizonDB was built using technologies like RocksDB and S2, and it improved performance, scalability, and developer experience.
