Hi,

I have been researching the Percolator feature of the ES, from which I understood that, this is useful for dynamic alerts or Streams(for every indexing of document or bulk indexing).

We have a requirement to create alerts between specific time intervals. For Eg: Once in 10mins, Once in an Hr, Once in a day. I am really interested to know if the Percolator could be used for this purpose.

We have a 24/7 live Indexing scheduler, indexing documents in multiple indices. Almost 18 million documents are created per day.

Please let me know, if I want to give any more information.

Thanks in Advance
