Elasticsearch query DSL API compatibility

OpenObserve natively supports Elasticsearch ingestion API compatibility. You don't need zPlane for ingestion API compatibility.

For Elasticsearch API compatibility for query & aggregation you can use zPlane.

⚠️ zPlane is commercial software that needs to be licensed before you can use it in production. Please contact us at hello@openobserve.ai for enquiries or enterprise license.

Installation

To set up zPlane, please make sure below environment variables are set:

Environment Variable Value Description
ZPLANE_SERVER_PORT 9200 zPlane server listen http port
ZPLANE_ZO_ENDPOINT http://localhost:5080 OpenObserve url
ZPLANE_ZO_ORGANIZATION default OpenObserve default organization

Elasticsearch compatible query API support

Query DSL will translate to Where in SQL, please refer below table for same:

ES DSL SQL
bool where
bool.should where AND
bool.must where AND
bool.must_not --
bool.filter where AND
bool.minimum_should_match --
boosting --
combined_fields where CONTACT(field1, field2) LIKE value
exists --
fuzzy --
geo --
ids id IN (id1, id2)
match_all where is empty
match_bool_prefix match_all / match_str(field) value
match_none --
match_phrase_prefix match_all / match_str(field) value
match_phrase match_all / match_str(field) value
match match_all / match_str(field) value
multi_match AND (match_all / match_str(field) value)
prefix match_all / match_str(field) value
query_string will parse AST and convert to SQL
range field >= a AND field < b
regexp re_match(field, value)
simple_query_string match_all / match_str(field) value
term match_all / match_str(field) value
terms_set --
terms AND (match_all / match_str(field) value)
wildcard AND (match_all / match_str(field) value)

Aggregation DSL will translate to Agg in Query

Agg DSL SQL (key, count)
avg select avg(field)
max select max(field)
min select min(field)
sum select sum(field)
count select count(field)
terms GROUP BY field
range select case
date_range select case
histogram Not supported
date_histogram select histogram(field, interval)
auto_date_histogram select histogram(field, bucket_num)
agg->children Work in progress

Limitations

  1. No support for analyze, fuzzy, wildcard search, all of those are treated as string match.
