So…. what’s coming? Aggregations (best thing since lego blocks) _cat API (feline love for the dev op) Distributed Percolation (put some nitro in your coffee) Snapshot & Restore (point in time, API driven backup) Federated search (get your results from multiple clusters) many, many more (memory circuit breaker, geo points compression, major improvement in allocation decision speed, ….)
who is the master? _cat style boaz-air:elasticsearch$: curl localhost:9200/_cat/master
! GNf0hEXlTfaBvQXKBF300A 10.0.1.13 Lang, Steven
! boaz-air:elasticsearch$:
Restore, 0.90 style 1. close the index (shutdown the cluster) 2. find all existing index shards 3. replace all index shards with data from backup 4. open the index (start the cluster)
