Usage


Compatibility

Language clients are forward compatible; meaning that the clients support communicating with greater or equal minor versions of Elasticsearch without breaking. It does not mean that the clients automatically support new features of newer Elasticsearch versions; it is only possible after a release of a new client version. For example, a 8.12 client version won't automatically support the new features of the 8.13 version of Elasticsearch, the 8.13 client version is required for that. Elasticsearch language clients are only backwards compatible with default distributions and without guarantees made.

If you have a need to have multiple versions installed at the same time older versions are also released as elasticsearch7 and elasticsearch8.
