Description

I want to integrate the ElasticSearch source to cube.dev but it seem to be not compatible with the latest version of Elastic (7.X) There is any plan to support it ?

Thanks,

Research direction
Start by examining the existing Elasticsearch driver in cube.js source code (likely in packages/cubejs elasticsearch driver). Compare its current implementation with Elasticsearch 7.x API changes, particularly around index management, query DSL, and authentication. Check the issue comments for any maintainer hints or linked discussions to narrow down specific incompatibilities. Consider creating a proof of concept branch that updates the driver to support ES 7.x while maintaining backward compatibility.
