Description

The current implementation creates time based indices. It would help if a there was a parameter that creates an ILM policy, so indices would be rolled over and deleted automatically.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the current time based index creation logic in the Elasticsearch registry configuration. Identify where to add a new configuration parameter for an ILM policy name. Then implement the option to create an ILM policy alongside index templates.
