How to do incremental indexing in ElasticSearch?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Here is my problem:

I query some data from MySql, and then index those data to ElasticSearch.

While the data in MySql is updating (update and insert) all the time, so I
have to update ElasticSearch index accordingly.

I cannot afford to do full index (data is huge), and I should not do that
either. Does ElasticSearch provide any mechanism to simulate incremental
indexing? Or I have to
implement it by myself when importing data from MySql?

Any ideas? Thanks!

Elasticsearch will index or update any document you will send to it.
So get the delta on your side and send documents you want to update to elasticsearch.

Did I misunderstand the question?

David, thanks for your answer. You mean that I have to control what to send
to elasticsearch by myself ?!

I heard that solr can configure delta index, so I'm just looking for a
similar mechanism in elasicsearch.

Thank you one more time.

Yes.

But you can look at JDBC river although I won't use it in a production env such as all other rivers.

I prefer to push docs from my legacy application (in real time that is)
