Using Elasticsearch to handle the search on the website. An easy to install-and-use tool that works right out of the box. Analyzers that are really helpful to analyze a string by converting it into tokens or terms. Can also have a GUI when used combined with Kibana.

Very good solution, much easier to learn and understand than solutions like Solr/Lucene.

Its true that ES is great for finding searching and we also use it. But I don't think thats a particular "challenge" per se.
