Single index for multiple users with routing

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I am planning to use single index for multiple users with routing

Based on the routing parameter, docs of a user will be stored in a shard.
What will happen, if that shard's size reaches the max value? What is the
solution?

Regards,
Karthick

You can create for example an index with alias on top of it.
When you hit the max value (for your use case), create a new index and use the same alias on top of it.

Thank you.

So I have to create alias like below( in addition with common index alias
user1 ) after hitting max value and use only
http://localhost:9200/user1(alias)/ for index and search. Please correct me
if I am wrong.

curl -XPOST 'http://localhost:9200/_aliases' -d '
{
"actions" : [
{
"add" : {
"index" : "user-index-user1",
"alias" : "user1",
"filter" : { "term" : {"userid" : 1 } },
"routing" : "1" }
}
]
}'
