Letting the LLMs help me with Elasticsearch syntax

At my day job we use a dual database setup, a standard relational database and Elasticsearch when the volume of the stored data gets too big, and it does get big.

I don’t feel at ease with Elasticsearch.

First, I’m already a veteran. I graduated from computer science in 2002. Back then, when you got out of college you had your standard SELECT...FROM...JOIN...WHERE...GROUPBY...HAVING in the playbook but NoSQL was not something most people know about. In fact, according to Wikipedia the term NoSQL was popularized in the early 2000s, MongoDB launched its first version in 2009 and Elasticsearch in 2010.

Since its first edition in 2018, I have been attending Cooltural Fest, a music festival that takes place yearly in my hometown of Almería.

I use the months before the festival to learn about new bands. The organization keeps an official Spotify Playlist that I don’t find very interesting since they, rightfully, emphasize the bigger bands and their most popular songs. Every year I copy all entries to my own list, trim most of the headliners’ content, and keep adding entries from the smaller artists.
