Hi,

I have a use case where I am not sure which type of fields to use.

Use case: For every order line we would like to store statuses and quantities
For ex, I have placed an order with some item quantity of 6. 4 of them got 
shipped and 2 of them in processing. I would like to search on status and also 
need to know how much quantity is in that status

Our current data model is for every order line. In the above scenario an order 
line can have multiple statuses and multiple quantities in those statuses. 
Don’t want to duplicate the data as it will update the statuses and quantity 
very often.

Solution:  Thinking of having a status:[SHIPPED,PROCESSING] and 
status_quantity:{"SHIPPED":4,"PROCESSING":2}

Question: What is your recommendation? How should I define these fields?
