Re: [Arches] Arches 4: ElasticSearch
Thanks for that warning, Koen. While we are on the subject, how does querying ES through Arches work, exactly?

RE: [Arches] Arches 4: ElasticSearch
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).

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!

Re: [Arches] Arches 4: ElasticSearch
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.
