Determine whether/how to create a unified index on Elasticsearch

[brylie]

By default, API Umbrella creates an Elasticsearch index every month:

Anticipated difficulty

Having multiple indexes for analytics might make queries difficult, as described in the Elasticsearch documentation:

An index is identified by a name (that must be all lowercase) and this name is used to refer to the index when performing indexing, search, update, and delete operations against the documents in it.

Goal

Determine whether/how to create a unified index for custom analytics queries/aggregations.
