Lucene to ES index migration

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi All,

We are migrating from Lucene to ES. The only piece that is not coming
together is the pain associate with having to reindex all the indexes out
there.

Want to know if anyone has solved the problem of migrating Lucene indexes
to ES. We have the documents stored with indexes.

Thanks
Vijai

Vijai,

You will have to reindex. Although, Elasticsearch is using Lucene library,
it relies on a certain special fields (such as uid for example) to be
indexed in a certain way. So, it's unlikely that your index in its current
state will be compatible with Elasticsearch.
