How to configure index settings to index data directly in S3 buckets/smartstore ?

[damode]

Is there a way to skip hot buckets (local storage) and ingest/index data directly into smartstore (s3 buckets) ?

[gjanders]

No this would not be possible. The bucket while hot is changing and it can only be uploaded to object storage when the changes stop. i.e. A warm bucket

[damode]

What if we just reduce the maxhotbuckets attribute to - 0 or change other hotbucket attribute like maxHotSpanSecs to 0, wouldn't just skip hot bucket and roll to warm bucket which would essentially get stored on S3 ?

Alternatively,  what if we configure S3 storage for hot buckets ?

I expect this to not work but feel free to test.
