keeping elasticsearch in sync with your DB is a real headache imo

@Mischa hmmmm....so this is the scenario I'm in, the DB holds all transactions state, then there's a service to ensure all pending transactions or transaction that stopped due to any point of failure are retried, basically refetched and repushed.
Due to constant read of the database , it increases the cost.
That's why I'm considering ElasticSearch.

might be simpler to use elasticache w/redis and invalidate the cache when there is some failure
