I am new to Elasticsearch and Lucene. Came across the presentation [What is in a Lucene index](http://www.slideshare.net/lucenerevolution/what-is-inaluceneagrandfinal). It is talking about what happens when a term query is issued from slide 28. My question is what version of Lucene this information is applicable to. We are using ES 1.5 which uses Lecene 4.10 I believe. Is this information relevant to our version?

Hi,

Elasticsearch 1.5.0 uses Lucene 4.10.4 (which you can find out by issuing `curl http://es_host:es_port` (e.g. `curl http://localhost:9200`). Given that Lucene 4.10.4 is a bugfix release of Lucene 4.10, which was [released in September 2014](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE/fixforversion/12327121/?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jira-projects-plugin:version-summary-panel) and the talk was given in November 2013 the information in the talk should be applicable to you.

Daniel
