Integrate AEM with Elastic Search 8

[acgurnani]

Hi,

I'm having trouble in integrating Elastic Search 8 with AEM, specially in dependency and pom management.

My bundle is in Installed state with the following classes not resolved.

io.opentelemetry.api.events -- Cannot be resolved
io.opentelemetry.extension.incubator.metrics -- Cannot be resolved
jakarta.json,version=[2.0,3) -- Cannot be resolved
jakarta.json.spi,version=[2.0,3) -- Cannot be resolved
jakarta.json.stream,version=[2.0,3) -- Cannot be resolved

org.apache.http.impl.nio.client -- Cannot be resolved

org.elasticsearch.client -- Cannot be resolved

Even though the original ES document just mentions the 2 dependency to be added to pom(Already added)

Link : https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-api-client/current/installation.html#insta...

<project>
  <dependencies>

    <dependency>
      <groupId>co.elastic.clients</groupId>
      <artifactId>elasticsearch-java</artifactId>
      <version>8.10.1</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
      <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
      <version>2.12.3</version>
    </dependency>

  </dependencies>
</project>

Hi,

1. Check Elasticsearch 8 compatibility with your AEM version.
2. Examine your bundle's dependencies for conflicts with Elasticsearch.
3. Use Maven's dependencyManagement to specify dependency versions.
4. Check for conflicting or duplicate dependencies with mvn dependency:tree.
5. Consider updating AEM or dependencies to match Elasticsearch 8.
6. Use a custom classloader to isolate dependencies if needed.
