It might be good to point out that - as Alexei mentioned - opening up your 
Elasticsearch instance to the world is a security breach and can get you hit by 
ransomware attacks. As has happened recently with elasticsearch instances 
around the world: 
http://www.zdnet.com/article/elasticsearch-ransomware-attacks-now-number-in-the-thousands/
 So if you do change the default setup, you need to make sure only Arches can 
to talk to Elasticsearch (or you need to setup a good security system in front 
of Elasticsearch).

Cheers,

Onderwerp: Re: [Arches] Arches 4: ElasticSearch

Hey Vincent, glad you brought this up. That graphic does more to show the 
resulting system architecture from the commands in the dev installation than it 
does to show the possible ways Arches can be setup. So, as Alexei mentioned it 
is a little misleading: Arches need not be setup with elasticsearch inside, but 
certain install steps allow that to happen out of convenience. I'll fix some of 
the text to say that. As mentioned in the note above the graphic, final 
distribution architecture isn't set yet anyway.

Glad we can work these wrinkles while drafting the documentation!

Essentially, yes, although you can open up the port to access ES directly, but 
I would consider that a security breach.

Hi Vincent,
Good question!  This graphic is actually a little misleading and should be 
changed to show Arches app acting as a proxy to to the Elasticsearch server.
Elasticsearch runs as a separate service and additional instances of 
Elasticsearch can be setup on additional machines if needed.
Cheers,
Alexei

In Arches 4 the ElasticSearch server is incorporated inside Arches itself:
https://github.com/archesproject/arches/wiki/Dev-Installation#system-architecture

I was wondering how this works and what the idea behind this is. It seems odd 
to me.
E.g. How would it work if you want to run a cluster of Arches instances?

Thanks!
Vincent
