According to this article [http://shaierera.blogspot.com/2013/09/boosting-documents-in-lucene.html](http://shaierera.blogspot.com/2013/09/boosting-documents-in-lucene.html) Lucene allows for updating NumericFieldValues without reindexing the whole document. The help doc on Partial Updates in Elasticsearch implies otherwise. Can anyone explain how it is solved in Elasticsearch?
