Hi Ere

Many thanks for your thoughts and technical tips!

For the moment the library decided not to load their 6 million records 
into Koha (with Zebra) but to index them separately, either in Vufind or 
in ALBERT (a discovery system developed by the KOBV, a German union 
catalog) which like Elasticsearch all are using Solr Lucene. The main 
reason for the decision is the actual development status Koha using 
Elasticsearch.

However, this will probably be reconsiderated one day in the future when 
Elasticsearch is fully integrated into Koha, all/most bugs omitted, and 
when Zebra definitely will be gone.

Best wishes: Michael
