I'm using elasticsearch as the database for a service. It would make things easier. For example, I could just return the _source field when other apps query my service. Related to that is that on the javascript client side, I am inserting the _id field into the _source JSON object as "id" and using that as the model for two way data-binding. If the id field was in the source already, I wouldn't have to keep track of this.
