Elasticsearch: Index modules

Elasticsearch index settings:

  • Index Settings Overview:

    • Index level settings can be set per-index.
    • Two types of settings:
    • Static: Set at index creation or on a closed index.
    • Dynamic: Changed on a live index using the update-index-settings API.
  • Static Settings:

    • Set during index creation or on a closed index.
    • Can also be updated using the update-index-settings API with the reopen query parameter set to true.
    • Changing static settings on a closed index may lead to incorrect settings.
  • Dynamic Settings:

    • Updated on an existing index without reindexing.
    • Provides flexibility for real-time adjustments.

Remember to test and validate settings based on your specific use case. 🚀🔍
