This work is part of an approach to monitor search load per index in a multi-project Elasticsearch environment. The goal is to enable dynamic adjustment of replica counts to optimize resource utilization and maintain a balance between insufficient usage and resource saturation
At the core of this solution is the
SearchStatsSettings
class, which supports half-life calculations withinShardSearchStats::StatsHolder
and configures the time interval for scheduled, pull-based collection of search node metrics, particularly relevant in serverless deployments.Search load is tracked on a per-shard basis by computing the Exponentially Weighted Moving Rate (EWMR) in the
ShardSearchStats
class, using the "took" time from each completed search phase.Additionally, a transport action has been implemented to support the on-demand retrieval of search load metrics directly from search nodes.
