have found only for go lang Installation | Go

is there any such page for Client SDK version as like this ?Support Matrix | Elastic

Hi @kanamani92 !

Clients page is the root page for the different Elasticsearch clients. Each client has a compatibility matrix (for example, Java server compatibility).

In general, you can expect the following:

client is forward compatible; meaning that the client supports communicating with greater or equal minor versions of Elasticsearch without breaking.

It does not mean that the client automatically supports new features of newer Elasticsearch versions; it is only possible after a release of a new client version. For example, a 8.12 client version won’t automatically support the new features of the 8.13 version of Elasticsearch, the 8.13 client version is required for that.

Elasticsearch language clients are only backwards compatible with default distributions and without guarantees made.

Hope this helps!
