Yes, I meant to say horizontally as well. If you shard your indices correctly, or use time-based indices, you can always increase capacity at a later point. The shard allocator does not take into consideration the difference in computing power between machines, so it is best to have all nodes be relatively the same (unless you do manual allocation). Most clustered software such as Hadoop work in such as fashion. -- Ivan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
