I'm looking to build an app around Elasticsearch with image and file upload/download. So a user uploads an image or document (PDF, Word, etc.), the image gets stored, and retrieved later by users and admin. It looks like Elastic can import/ingest data from files and images, but it is not clear to me…

Image and document upload/download in Elasticsearch

I've probably found my answer here: Storing images in an index

It looks like it's possible, but inefficient.
