The standard analyzer is explained here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.1/analysis-standard-analyzer.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.1/analysis-standard-analyzer.html)

As per [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.1/analysis.html#\_specifying\_an\_index\_time\_analyzer](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.1/analysis.html#_specifying_an_index_time_analyzer), the default analyzer is the standard one.
