I believe your issue is that the analysis settings need to be nested within a settings node in your JSON, not within an index node as you have it. Please reference the Elasticsearch Create Index API for details on constructing the JSON.

Therefore, your create index call should look like the the following:

curl -X PUT "http://localhost:9200/$INDEX_NAME/" -d '{
    "settings":{
        "analysis":{
            "analyzer":{
                "analyzer1":{
                    "type":"custom",
                    "tokenizer":"standard",
                    "filter":[ "standard", "lowercase", "stop", "kstem", "ngram" ]
                }
            },
            "filter":{
                "ngram":{
                    "type":"ngram",
                    "min_gram":2,
                    "max_gram":15
                }
            }
        }
    },
    "mappings": {
        "product": {
            "properties": {
                "title": {
                    "type": "string",
                    "search_analyzer" : "analyzer1",
                    "index_analyzer" : "analyzer1"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}';
