No. JNDI is a different story.

I don't think it's possible to start with JDBC importer.

I also think indexing in Elasticsearch makes no sense because JNDI is a Java-centric naming service. The task of JNDI is fast lookup of Java objects from a directory which would be impossible in Elasticsearch: there are no Java objects in Elasticsearch, there is no directory in Elasticsearch, and there are also no faster lookups.
