1 - I think if we were sticking with the JVM, I do wonder if Lucene would be the right choice in that case

2 - It's a great tool with a lot of tuneability and support!

3 - We've been using it for K8s logs and OTEL (with Jaeger). Seems good so far, though I do wonder how the future of this will play out with the $DDOG acquisition.
