Topic: FHIR Server with ElasticSearch

Good morning, I need to develop a fhir server with ElasticSearch as database, I'm trying to use the hapi development but I can't connect with the ES.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

ES is not very good as primary database - use it as indexing/search engine

I want to store the fhir message as JSON and access it through the fhir server.
What do you recommend me to use? Maybe MongoDB?
nicola (RIO/SS) (Jul 05 2018 at 11:11):
My recommendation is PostgreSQL & jsonb

It will give you sql power and ACID

Do you suggest the use of FHIRbase?
nicola (RIO/SS) (Jul 05 2018 at 11:19):
FHIRBase is little bit outdate - you can use postgres the same way as mongo and just pick some ideas from fhirbase - how to store resources and build sql for search.

Just curious: what are reasons to develop a FHIR server (on ElasticSearch)?
As the developer of Vonk FHIR Server I always like to hear from the community what they need...
