Elasticsearch is just a text search engine base on lucene. You either use ES, Solr, or Lucene library if you want fuzzy search and such.
You really want to use it in tandem with a storage db PostgreSQL, Cassandra, MongDB. Where ES or any lucene based indexer/db would be use for text searching.
I personally like PostgreSQL and Cassandra, would use it in tadem with ES. Solr, last I check was a bit complicated to cluster.
