Hello, I've started playing around with the completion suggester to implement autocomplete functionality in my application and found it pretty straightforward and simple to use.
The problem I have is that I don't want mixed types in my suggestions: if have a "music" index with "song" and "artist" types, I want to have "song" and "artist" autocompletes. From the documentation I get that this doesn't seem to be supported, so I'm considering having a separate index for each type. I've read<http://elasticsearch-users.115913.n3.nabble.com/More-indices-vs-more-types-td3999423.html#a4002051>that this is not the best practice, but from the size of my data I presume I won't be having problems: I have around 10 types, most of them with around 2000 documents. It's worth noting that I'm just using elasticsearch for this autocomplete functionality (although I may use it for regular search eventually). So I wanted to check if it makes sense modeling my indices that way or if there's an alternative solution to my problem (for example, using the suggest plugin <https://github.com/spinscale/elasticsearch-suggest-plugin>?)
