    Quick questions after the Elasticsearch indexing is over:
    1. if i upgrade the WordPress version, do we need to re-index the data to ES server again (ES server is different from the website server)?
    2. If we delete and reinstall the WPSOLR plugin, do we need to do the re-indexing again?
    3. Is it possible to connect the elastic server to the same website duplicated on a different server with same WPSOLR account?

    Can you explain what you want to achieve?

    In 1st, if we upgrade the current wordpress version, it will ask for database upgrade. So, I was worried if we need to reindex the Elasticsearch.

    No need, no.

    In 3rd, if we use the website snapshot (Created by digital ocean) on a different server and do some changes, can we connect the Elasticsearch server to the same website hosted on different IP address?

    Your clone will point to the same Elasticsearch index, which is dangerous.

    But we will delete the main website after the clone is there.

    Then create a new index, and set it up in the clone. It will work fine with the clone.

    Perfect…
    One last thing…the current index rate is slow…around 300 per minute.
    We have 1.4 million products.
    Can we speed up?

    it should be 300 per 5-10 sec.

    In a batch of 100. Right now, it has been 30 minutes and 10400 documents indexed so far.

    You have an issue.

    a) SQL is slow to retrieve data to index
    b) Elasticsearch is slow to ingest data

    I believe the SQL is slow. Although we are on 16 GB RAM server.

    On SSDs?

    Yes, SSD. DigitalOcean. Should we increase the RAM and CPU for indexing purpose and then bring it down?
