Elasticsearch River for database

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi, I am new to Elasticsearch. I want to populate updated data from sql
server database to Elasticsearch index, but i have some questions that not
clear in detail.

  1. Is Elasticsearch river support automatic failover?
  2. Can you help me to provide resource or example code for database river?

Thank You

  1. yes
  2. it doesn't exist as sending docs from a YesSQL database to a NoSQL store is not trivial.

You should consider to use an ETL to extract your data (SQL, joins, ...), transform to a JSON Doc and Load it to ES.

A river could make sense, if you have a "last update field" somewhere but it's really specific to your SQL schema.

Btw, You can grab source code from CouchDb River to start.

My 2 cents.

I hope my JDBC river implementation at
GitHub - jprante/elasticsearch-jdbc: JDBC importer for Elasticsearch is useful.

Best regards,

Jörg
