Creating the product-search service

With two databases done so far, you must be familiar with the drill by now. It is not very different from what we did for HSQLDB and MongoDB.

2. In the Product entity, @Document now represents an Elasticsearch document. It should have an index and type defined the same since we used to load the test data as shown in the Product.java file:

package com.mycompany.product.entity ...
