Please Advice: Replacing SQL sum with Elastic Search sum

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

We are considering moving an SQL table to a MongoDB document, and
replace a sum over a column in SQL with an Elastic Search statistical
facet sum over the equivalent document field. Please let us know if
this is not a good idea or if there is a better query.

Best,
Andy

Its a good idea :), note though, when doing that, all the field values will
be loaded to memory to handle it as fast as possible.
