> The current Elasticsearch processors use the Transport Client, and as a result there can be some compatibility issues between multiple versions of ES clusters. The REST API is much more standard between versions, so it would be nice to have ES processors that use the REST API, to enable things like migration from an Elasticsearch cluster with an older version to a cluster with a newer version.
