{"query":{
"match" : {
"content" : "2"
}
}} matches all the documents whole content contains the number 2, however I would like the content to be exactly 2, no more no less - think of my requirement in a spirit of Java's String.equals.
Similarly for the second query I would like to match when the document's content is exactly '3 3' and nothing more or less. {"query":{
"match" : {
"content" : "3 3"
}
}}
How could I do exact (String.equals) matching in Elasticsearch?

Without seeing your index type mapping and sample data, it's hard to answer this directly - but I'll try.
Offhand, I'd say this is similar to this answer here (http://stackoverflow.com/a/12867852/382774), where you simply set the content field's index option to not_analyzed in your mapping:
"url" : {
"type" : "string",
"index" : "not_analyzed"
}
Edit: I wasn't clear enough with my original answer, shown above. I did not mean to imply that you should add the example code to your query, I meant that you need to specify in your index type mapping that the url field is of type string and it is indexed but not analyzed (not_analyzed).
This tells Elasticsearch to not bother analyzing (tokenizing or token filtering) the field when you're indexing your documents - just store it in the index as it exists in the document. For more information on mappings, see http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/mapping/ for an intro and http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/mapping/core-types/ for specifics on not_analyzed (tip: search for it on that page).

You should use filter instead of match.
{
"query" : {
"constant_score" : {
"filter" : {
"term" : {
"content" : 2
}
}
}
}
And you got docs whose content is exact 2, instead of 20 or 2.1
