Frozen indices are those indices which are rarely accessed. So, the users freeze these indices. Such indices are called frozen indices. Basically, we freeze those indices which are not in use to free up the memory.
Frozen indices become read-only and its resources are no longer kept active. So, these indices are searchable, but to write again, we have to unfreeze them. Elasticsearch offers an ignore_throttled parameter, which is used to include the frozen indices in your search. Thus, we don't need to re-open them to make available for search.

No, Elasticsearch does not offer its own graphical user interface (GUI). We run it through a batch file (i.e., elasticsearch.bat) that provides a Command Line Interface (CLI).
To interact with Elasticsearch, we have to install a plugin or a data visualization tool. There are several plugins available, such as elasticsearch-head, icu-analyzer, etc. Despite this, you can install Kibana for data visualization, which is an essential component of ELK Stack.

Aggregations help in the collection of data from the query used in the search. Different types of aggregations are Metrics, Average, Minimum, Maximum, Sum and stats, based on different purposes.

The aggregations framework helps you to provide aggregated data based on a search query. It is based on simple building blocks known as aggregations. It can be composed to build complex summaries of the data.

Domain Specific Language (DSL) Elasticsearch query which is known as Full-text queries utilizes the HTTP request body, offers the advantage of clear and detailed in their intent, over time it is simpler to tune these queries.
Term based queries utilize the inverted index, a hash map-like data structure that helps to locate text or string from the body of email, keyword or numbers or dates, etc. used in analysis purposes.

Ingest node is used to pre-process the documents before the actual document indexing is done. It intercepts bulk and index requests and applies transformations to pass the documents back to the bulk API and index.

For example:

Mentioned below are the various possible ways in which we can perform a search in Elasticsearch:
<> Applying search API across multiple types and multiple indexes: Search API, we can search an entity across multiple types and indices.
<> Search request using a Uniform Resource Identifier: We can search requests using parameters along with URI i.e. Uniform Resource Identifier.
<> Search using Query DSL i.e. (Domain Specific Language) within the body: DSL i.e. Domain Specific Language is utilized for JSON request body.

Elasticsearch is accessed by using HTTP protocol on the web, which needs a port number along with localhost address. The default port number of Elasticsearch is 9200.
In case the Elasticsearch port 9200 is already in use or used by any other tool, you can change the port number. Elasticsearch port number can be changed in the elasticsearch.yml file. This file exists inside the config folder.

When you search on the internet about say, Apple. It could either display the search results about fruit or company with name as an Apple. You may want to buy fruit online, check the recipe from the fruit or health benefits of eating fruit, apple.
In contrast, you may want to check Apple.com to find the latest product range offered by the company, check Apple Inc.’s stock prices and how a company is performing in NASDAQ in the last 6 months, 1 or 5 years.
Similarly, when we search for a document (a record) from Elasticsearch, you are interested in getting the relevant information that you are looking for. Based on the relevance, the probability of getting the relevant information is calculated by the Lucene scoring algorithm.
The Lucene technology helps to search a particular record i.e. document which is indexed based on the frequency of the term in search appearing in the document, how often its appearance across an index and query which is designed using various parameters.

Elasticsearch provides a very comprehensive and powerful REST API that you can use to interact with your cluster. Among the few things that can be done with the API are as follows:
Check your cluster, node, and index health, status, and statistics
Administer your cluster, node, and index data and metadata
Perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, and Delete) and search operations against your indexes
Execute advanced search operations viz. aggregations, filtering, paging, scripting, sorting, among many others

A token filter obtains the token stream, later on add, delete, or alter the tokens. For instance, a lowercase token filter modifies all tokens into lowercase, a stop token filter deletes stop words, and a synonym token filter includes synonyms into the token stream.
Token filters will be unable to change the position or character offsets of any certain token.

Following are the way of search in Elasticsearch:
Multi-index, Multitype search: You can search APIs that can be applied across all multiple indices by using the multi-index support system.
In Elastic search, we can create certain tags across all indices across all indices and all types.
>> URI search: A search request is executed using a URI by providing requested parameters.
>> Request body search: A search request need to be executed by a search DSL. It includes the query DSL within the body.

Elasticsearch allows you to create the mapping according to the data provided by the user in the request body. Its bulk feature can be used to add more than one JSON object in the index.
For example, POST website /_bulk.

We have different ways of searching in Elasticsearch:
>> Multi-index, Multitype search: A user can search APIs that can be applied across several indices through a multi-index support system.
>> URI (uniform resource identifier) search: A user can execute a search request using a URI by providing the requested parameters.
>> Request body search: A search request needs to be executed by a search DSL.
