From the research I have done it seems that the two do not work together because of HTTP only support for Amazon Elasticsearch.
Hoping someone can clarify if in fact it is not something that is possible with Spring Data Elasticsearch.
From different discussions:
- Spring data ES and searchly
- port for the transport protocol
and the AWS documentation on ES service limitations; go to the bottom, the last line says:
The service supports HTTP on port 80, but does not support TCP transport.
It's not yet possible to use Spring Data ES which uses the Java APIs, with Amazon service which only available through REST.
