We are using elastic search for faster searching on our organization data . The data model has organization id, address, organization name, business start date and organization contacts array .  
We have asked to perform string contains search and string starts with search on organization id and/or organization name field  
For example,  
\</\>  
organization.name:”abc\*” or organization.id:”abc”  
organization.name:”abc\*” and organization.id:”_abc_”  
organization.name:”_abc_” and organization.id:”abc\*”  
\</\>

Since we need to use both on same field using Ngram analyzer is not working  
Please advise
