=== Mapping changes
==== The `_all` meta field is removed
The `_all` field deprecated in 6 have now been removed.
==== The `_uid` meta field is removed
This field used to index a composite key formed of the `_type` and the `_id`.
Now that indices cannot have multiple types, this has been removed in favour
of `_id`.
==== The `_default_` mapping is no longer allowed
The `_default_` mapping has been deprecated in 6.0 and is now no longer allowed
in 7.0. Trying to configure a `_default_` mapping on 7.x indices will result in
an error.
==== `index_options` for numeric fields has been removed
The `index_options` field for numeric fields has been deprecated in 6 and has now been removed.
==== Limiting the number of `nested` json objects
To safeguard against out of memory errors, the number of nested json objects within a single
document across all fields has been limited to 10000. This default limit can be changed with
the index setting `index.mapping.nested_objects.limit`.
==== The `update_all_types` option has been removed
This option is useless now that all indices have at most one type.
==== The `classic` similarity has been removed
The `classic` similarity relied on coordination factors for scoring to be good
in presence of stopwords in the query. This feature has been removed from
Lucene, which means that the `classic` similarity now produces scores of lower
quality. It is advised to switch to `BM25` instead, which is widely accepted
as a better alternative.
==== Similarities fail when unsupported options are provided
An error will now be thrown when unknown configuration options are provided
to similarities. Such unknown parameters were ignored before.
