+Aliased Indexes
+===============
+
+You can set up FOSElasticaBundle to use aliases for indexes which allows you to run an
+index population without resetting the index currently being used by the application.
+
+> *Note*: When you're using an alias, resetting an individual type will still cause a
+> reset for that type.
+
+To configure FOSElasticaBundle to use aliases for an index, set the use_alias option to
+true.
+
+```yaml
+fos_elastica:
+    indexes:
+        website:
+            use_alias: true
+```
+
+The process for setting up aliases on an existing application is slightly more complicated
+because the bundle is not able to set an alias as the same name as an index. You have some
+options on how to handle this:
+
+1) Delete the index from Elasticsearch. This option will make searching unavailable in your
+   application until a population has completed itself, and an alias is created.
+
+2) Change the index_name parameter for your index to something new, and manually alias the
+   current index to the new index_name, which will then be replaced when you run a repopulate.
+
+```yaml
+fos_elastica:
+    indexes:
+        website:
+            use_alias: true
+            index_name: website_prod
+```
+
+```bash
+$ curl -XPOST 'http://localhost:9200/_aliases' -d '
+{
+    "actions" : [
+        { "add" : { "index" : "website", "alias" : "website_prod" } }
+    ]
+}'
+```
