I have a multi-tenant application where in which each tenant has separate  
index specific to tenant. My question is that if I search something from  
\_all index how can I ensure in elasticsearch that it will search for  
relevant query from each index. Means, how can I give equal importance to  
each tenant's index in elasticsearch.

Thanks,

Noor.

Hi Noor,

In a multiple-index search, all indices are weighted equally for scoring  
purposes. You shouldn't see any difference in importance between any of  
your tenants' indices.

Thanks,  
Sean
