Elastic Ccr API

The cross-cluster replication (CCR) APIs let you run replication operations, such as creating and managing follower indices or auto-follow patterns. Use CCR to replicate indices across clusters to maintain search availability during outages, reduce indexing impact, and lower search latency by serving requests closer to users.
