Type

Elasticsearch type, which is similar to the table name of a relational database. The type name can contain only lowercase letters.

NOTE:

Elasticsearch 7.x and later versions do not support custom types. Instead, only the _doc type can be used. In this case, this parameter does not take effect even if it is set.

Periodically Create Index

For streaming jobs that continuously write data to Elasticsearch, CDM periodically creates indexes and writes data to the indexes, which helps you delete expired data. The indexes can be created based on the following periods:
  • Every hour: CDM creates indexes on the hour. The new indexes are named in the format of Index name+Year+Month+Day+Hour, for example, index2018121709.
  • Every day: CDM creates indexes at 00:00 every day. The new indexes are named in the format of Index name+Year+Month+Day, for example, index20181217.
  • Every week: CDM creates indexes at 00:00 every Monday. The new indexes are named in the format of Index name+Year+Week, for example, index201842.
  • Every month: CDM creates indexes at 00:00 on the first day of each month. The new indexes are named in the format of Index name+Year+Month, for example, index201812.
  • Do not create: Do not create indexes periodically.

When extracting data from a file, you must configure a single extractor, which means setting Concurrent Extractors to 1. Otherwise, this parameter is invalid.
