Spring Data Jest与Amazon ES版本适配疑问：仅支持1.5和5.5.0？

Great question! Let's break this down clearly based on the version details you shared (as of April 18, 2018):

官方明确支持的匹配版本 #

First off, you're absolutely right about the only officially confirmed compatible pairs between Amazon ES and Spring Data Jest:

• Amazon ES 1.5 ↔ Spring Data Jest's supported Elasticsearch 1.5.2
• Amazon ES 5.5 ↔ Spring Data Jest's supported Elasticsearch 5.5.0

These are the only combinations where both platforms explicitly list the version, so you can use them with confidence knowing they've been tested and validated.

有没有遗漏的潜在兼容可能性？ #

You might be curious about minor versions within the same major release (like Amazon ES 5.3 paired with Spring Data Jest's 5.5.0). Here's what you need to know:

• Elasticsearch usually keeps core API compatibility within a major version (e.g., most 5.x releases share similar core functionality).
• However, Spring Data Jest ties its compatibility to specific Elasticsearch versions, not just broad major ranges. Since 5.3 isn't listed in Spring Data Jest's supported versions, there's no official guarantee it will work smoothly. You could run into subtle issues like deprecated API calls, minor signature mismatches, or untested edge cases that cause unexpected behavior.

For newer major versions like Amazon ES 6.0/6.2, Spring Data Jest's official documentation (as of April 2018) didn't support any 6.x Elasticsearch releases at all. The underlying Jest client (which Spring Data Jest relies on) was still in the process of adapting to ES 6.x at that time, so even unofficial compatibility would be risky for production use.

总结 #

As of April 18, 2018, the only safe, officially supported version combinations are the 1.5 and 5.5 pairs you identified. Any other version mix would be untested and could lead to compatibility headaches in a production environment.
