Reindex API is a nice option:
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-reindex.html#_reindex_daily_indices

Also look into automatic scroll slicing that allows scrolls to be processed by multiple threads in parallel giving a nice speed boost.

Can anybody please explain that scroll option? I do reindex with logstash and it loops endlessly - the data from source index is randomly duplicated to output
