I currently have an array of objects in my Elasticsearch. Currently I only have one filter on the name and I load all objects from the Elasticsearch and process them later in the application. Now I have too much data in the Elasticsearch and I need a page numbering to improve the performance. How can I do a page numbering based on an array?

```auto
[
  {
    "_id": "10",
    "_source": {
      "names": [{ "id": 10, "title": "Hans" }],
      "tags": [
        {
          "id": 5,
          "name": "Foo"
        },
        {
          "id": 8,
          "name": "Bar"
        }
      ]
    }
  },
  {
    "_id": "11",
    "_source": {
      "names": [{ "id": 12, "title": "Franz" }],
      "tags": [
        {
          "id": 6,
          "name": "Foo Bar"
        }
      ]
    }
  },
  {
    "_id": "4",
    "_source": {
      "names": [{ "id": 10, "title": "Hans" }],
      "tags": [
        {
            "id": 5,
            "name": "Example"
          },
          {
            "id": 8,
            "name": "Test"
          }
      ]
    }
  }
]

```
