PyCon CZ - Day 3

I was already experienced with the library, since I've used, Elasticsearch with Python, but even though, this workshop gave me a deeper understanding of the concepts behind it (there was a lot about the internals of Elasticsearch, how it works, its configuration, concepts of information retrieval, etc.), so I got new ideas. On the practical side, I'll check this project.
