Elastic just released their new pipeline query language called ES|QL. This is a conscious attempt to consolidate the language zoo in the Elastic ecosystem (queryDSL, EQL, KQL, SQL, Painless, Canvas/Timelion). Elastic said that they worked on this effort for over a year. The documentation is still sparse, but we still tried to read between the lines to understand what this new pipeline language has to offer.
