Elasticsearch 7 and Elastic Stack - In Depth and Hands On! - Nested Aggregations - Part 1

The video tutorial explains how to use nested aggregation to compute the average rating for each Star Wars movie in a database. It involves setting up a query to find movies with 'Star Wars' in the title, aggregating ratings by movie title, and calculating the average rating. The tutorial includes an activity to explore common issues with text field aggregation and provides a detailed explanation of the query structure and execution.

What is the main purpose of using nested aggregations in the context of the Star Wars movie ratings example?

• To eliminate duplicate entries

• To increase the number of data points

• To compute average ratings for each movie

• To simplify the data structure

What is the first step in the query process to find Star Wars movies?

• Sort by box office earnings

• Filter by release year

• Match the phrase 'Star Wars' in the title

• Aggregate by movie genre

What is a potential issue when aggregating on text fields?

• Data loss

• Inability to sort data

• Increased processing time

• Unexpected results due to text field nuances

Why is it important to use tabs and proper formatting when constructing a complex query?

• To reduce the size of the query

• To make the query run faster

• To ensure the query is syntactically correct

• To improve readability and understand nesting

What is the role of the 'titles' aggregation in the query?

• To sort movies by their release date

• To filter out non-Star Wars movies

• To group ratings by individual movie titles

• To calculate the total number of ratings

Why is it necessary to understand the difference between the ratings index and the movies index?

• To speed up the query execution

• To ensure all movies are included

• To reduce the complexity of the query

• To avoid aggregating incorrect data

What is the final step in the nested aggregation process for Star Wars movies?

• Calculate the total number of ratings

• Compute the average rating for each title

• Sort the movies by their average rating

• Filter out movies with low ratings
