Fix CircuitBreakingException

in ELK Stack

Solution

CircuitBreakingException in Elasticsearch happens when a query attempts to use too much memory, exceeding the circuit breaker limit. To resolve this, either optimize the query by reducing the time range, increasing aggregation bucket sizes, decreasing the `step` in PromQL queries, or, if your cluster has enough resources, cautiously increase the `indices.breaker.total.limit` setting in Elasticsearch. Be mindful of potential cluster instability when raising the memory limit.
