Curator and Index Lifecycle Management
editBeginning with Elasticsearch version 6.6, Elasticsearch has provided Index Lifecycle Management (or, ILM) to users with at least a Basic license. ILM provides users with many of the most common index management features as a matter of policy, rather than execution time analysis (which is how Curator works).
