Querying in Elasticsearch

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi Team. Is it possible to issue a single query for 2 different indexes.

Lets say I have 2 index - A & B and I need to write a query where in I need the count of matches where A.xyz = B.abc , where xyz, abc = fields of respective index.

Can anyone help me with this by adding comments along these lines.

Thanks in advance.

No. You can't join 2 indices at query time.

Hi there,

How about this - Let's say I have 2 csv files - A and B
I need to ingest the csv data to my elastic server for potential search
As of now I use logstash to ingest data to my elastic server - and now I want to check the records which have a relationship like A.[fieldname]=B.[fieldname].

How can I accomplish this using ELK stack.

Urgent help!

Thanks in advance.

You can't do that.

But you can try to do join at index time.
Like instead of indexing:

PUT a/_doc/1
{
  "fieldname": "foo",
  "foo_a": "bar"
}
PUT b/_doc/1
{
  "fieldname": "foo",
  "foo_b": "bar"
}

Index:

PUT ab/_doc/1
{
  "fieldname": "foo",
  "foo_a": "bar",
  "foo_b": "bar"
}

Logstash jdbc filter might help for that.
