+### Elasticsearch Index Name Customization
+
+By default, the Elasticsearch indexer creates index names based on their type, a separator, and the current date as a postfix. You can configure a custom prefix for all indices by adding the following section to your app configuration.
+
+An example of a default index name would look like this:  
+`software-catalog-index__20250219`
+
+To prefix all indices with a custom string (e.g., `custom-prefix`), use the following configuration:
+
+```yaml
+search:
+  elasticsearch:
+    indexPrefix: custom-prefix-
+```
+
+After applying this setting, an index name would look like this: `custom-prefix-software-catalog-index__20250219`
