Hi Hardy,
We built a new UI outside of DSpace which our Jorum users will be using
for all their search and stats queries. (That is the introduction for
everyone who was not at OR13 in our DSpace API session ;-))
For that UI we built an ES index where the stats is a inner-document to
the item. See below if you are interested otherwise you can safely
ignore the next bit. Indentation is off as well.

----------
We got a script which creates that ES index out of Solr stats and
discovery indexes. But since we need to keep that ES up to date we added
to the statistics package an ElasticSearchLogger.java (intgrated into
UsageStatsEntity.java) and added a new Consumer to
event.dispatcher.default.consumers which gets triggered whenever
something happens to an item.
This all worked very well until we built the ES with our real data and
ES fell over with memory problems -- Footprint of 6GB in memory with a
fairly moderate index. The new version of ES solved the memory problem
but is causing library conflicts. As usual you can't have everything.
That far to the 'tell me more' part. The other question of whether I
would consider contributing - yes, if that stuff is interesting to
anyone else. Building the ES index is one bit but there is nothing
within DSpace which is using it - that part is completely external.
(And I have not forgotten your question for making the sources open to
the Rubi-UI either. We are heading towards the release of it.)
Best regards,
Anja
