Semi-Document Management System with Elasticsearh

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello, I am looking for some ideas on a project I am looking at starting.

Big picture is I would like to build a semi-document management system. The primary goal is to have multiple indexes to search for the documents (PDFs, TIFFs, etc) that we have collected.
My question is, I don't really want to only store the files within Elasticsearch (as bytes), rather, I would like to store them as files in a folder structure (or similar) while still having the ingest features available.

Is this something that can be done? What ideas do you have and what is the best practice for this?

Thanks.

If you want to do that, then do it external to Elasticsearch and then store some meta-data about the docs in Elasticsearch to search on.
