Search perfomance using many indices with one alias

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
7

Hey code_blue,

thanks for your hints. Especially the one about schema less model helps a lot to understand how the queries are performed.

A term query with type1.field1 does not yield any results:

{
  "query": {
    "query_string": {
      "default_field": "type1.field1",
      "query": "test"
    }
  }
}

I found a very well perfoming solution using IndicesQuery, but it is deprecated. I opened a new topic for my question as it might be relevant to other users as well: Search performance: IndicesQuery (deprecated) vs. query on field _index
