While still searchable, this tier is typically optimized for lower storage costs rather than search speed. It’s important to note that this is calculated relative to the rollover date (NOT the original creation date of the index). For example, if you have an index that is set to rollover after 30 days and cold min_age set to 60 then there will be 30 days from index creation to rollover and then an additional 60 days before moving to cold tier.
