What I've done, and I'm not totally sure if it's a best practice is I've over-allocated the # of shards. So if I think I need 5 shards, I create 50 or 100 shards instead. Then I'll have some app logic to determine the shard a document should go to. Initially all docs will go to shard 0. Then when that's full (around 15 GB of size, depends on your RAM), then I set all docs to go to shard 1. Of course, you'll need to be careful as you dun want duplicate documents in different shards. The benefit of this is the as your app scales, you'll search only the shards needed. So if you have just 1 shard w/ data, u can tell ElasticSearch to just search in that 1 shard. |
