Newbie here. This is probably straightforward, but I wanted to get best-practices recommendations if applicable.
My main ES use and query case is to search for a kind of Event. All Events are associated with (i.e. contain) a Country object. Besides querying for other kinds of Event data, queries can contain country-related data (e.g. name, location, continent, etc.). Since countries are a finite set and the country data is fairly large, I'd prefer not to duplicate country data across Event documents. What's the best way to handle this situation? Best thing I can think of is to 1) create a separate index with the country data, then 2) run the user query against the country index 3) Pick off the high match(es) if any and 4) issue a new query against the Event index using something like the country abbreviation (from the high match) which would be an Event field. This seems like a lot of work per query. Is there a better solution? TIA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
