Summary
AliasActionsbuilder for atomic alias additions, removals, and index retirementis_write_indexwhen creating and reading aliasesWhy
The adapter previously exposed only separate alias creation and deletion calls. Applications rebuilding a physical index could not atomically move a stable alias from the old index to the new one, creating a possible gap during a blue-green cutover.
This adds a first-party abstraction over OpenSearch's atomic aliases API so higher-level packages can safely coordinate zero-downtime index deployments.
Developer impact
Existing
putAlias()anddeleteAlias()usage remains unchanged. Consumers can now designate an alias write index and compose a complete cutover:Adding
updateAliases()toIndexManagerInterfacemeans custom third-party implementations of that interface must implement the new method.Validation
