Unlike other Relational Databases, you don't need Spring RestTemplate to query the elastic database. ElasticSearch comes with inbuilt Java API library. You directly use those functions to create your query and get the results.

Checkout this Link. It has the documentation about how to use the API.

Elastic Search Java API 5.1

I would recommend Using the ES Java API as mentioned by Tanay.

Set up your connection like this

//Create the ES clien
org.elasticsearch.client.Client client;

//Setup the connection. Make sure you use port 9300 and not 9200 here.
client = new PreBuiltTransportClient(Settings.EMPTY)
                    .addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress(InetAddress.getByName("localhost"), "9300"));

//Interact with your index, for example getting an object by its ID
GetResponse response = client.prepareGet("index", "type", "id")
    .setOperationThreaded(false)
    .get();

//Close the connection
client.close();
