Implementing the Indexer Function

An Indexer [instance] is a state machine. It has three sets of states: pre-active, active, and post-active.

• The pre-active states are ”uninitialised” (as spelled here), and the intermediate state ”initialising” (as spelled here).
• The active states are “running” and “throttling”.
• The post-active states are the intermediate state “terminating” and “terminated”.
