Removal of mapping type from request logger

[SachinVarghese]

This issue pertains to the removal of mapping types in new elastic versions, as mentioned here.

So we will need to deprecate the inferencerequest mapping type in the current request logger implementation in favour of a unique _doc type. Source Link

Not an extremely urgent requirement, since the current request logger implementation would fail only for elastic versions above 8.0 as per https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/removal-of-types.html#_schedule_for_removal_of_mapping_types

So just for clarity,

How we update elastic indexes before version 8.0

PUT <index-name>/inferencerequest/<request-id>
{
  "<data-key>": "<data-value>",
}

How we update elastic indexes now post version 8.0

PUT <index-name>/_doc/<request-id>
{
  "<data-key>": "<data-value>",
}
