Stack monitoring understanding

[elasticforme (Sachin)]

Hi, Community,

I am trying to understand this stack monitoring

one of my busy index’s advance monitoring show this

is this means total 888 search request came in and combine it tool 918.49ms ?

or is it just one search request took 918.49ms?

this index has five shard and total size is just 10gig at this time. this is yearly index and it grows to around 20-25gig per shard. then I create new index when new year starts. I just started collecting this data hence I don’t have much history.

In this second image I have almost every yearly index with same search rate. is this means it is used by wildcard like index-YYYY-* which can hit all index is that correct?
