 The new hardware-accelerated codecs can be used by setting one of the following `index.codec` values:
 * `qat_lz4` (OpenSearch 2.15 and later): Hardware-accelerated `LZ4`
 * `qat_deflate` (OpenSearch 2.15 and later): Hardware-accelerated `DEFLATE`
+* `qat_zstd` (OpenSearch 2.19.3 and later): Hardware-accelerated `ZSTD`
 
-`qat_deflate` offers a much better compression ratio than `qat_lz4`, with a modest drop in compression and decompression speed.

-- `index.codec.compression_level` (Integer): The compression level setting provides a trade-off between compression ratio and speed. A higher compression level results in a higher compression ratio (smaller storage size), but slower compression and decompression speeds lead to higher indexing and search latencies. This setting can only be specified if `index.codec` is set to `zstd` and `zstd_no_dict` in OpenSearch 2.9 and later or `qat_lz4` and `qat_deflate` in OpenSearch 2.14 and later. Valid values are integers in the [1, 6] range. For more information, see [Index codec settings]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/im-plugin/index-codecs/). Optional. Default is 3.

Routing helps an imbalanced cluster by relocating values to a subset of shards rather than a single shard. To enable routing, set this value to greater than 1 but less than `index.number_of_shards`. Default is 1.
