Re: ES default - async or sync

2015-02-02 Thread 'Cindy' via elasticsearch
Hi Clinton,

Is using async NOT recommonded? The Definitive Guild says, This option is 
mentioned specifically to *advise against using it*. The default sync 
replication 
allows Elasticsearch to exert back pressure on whatever system is feeding 
it with data. With async replication, it is possible to *overload 
Elasticsearch* by sending too many requests without waiting for their 
completion.

Also, if the indexes has *not* being updated in the replica, could the 
query only be sent to the replica and elasticsearch return not found?

 OK I see where the confusion is coming in.  I used the word asynchronously 
 in slightly different contexts there.  I will try to reword in the 
 Definitive Guide.

 Replication is sync by default, in other words: the primary waits for 
 indexing to happen on the replica before it returns to the user.  That 
 said, lots of these processes happen at the same time, so sending the 
 document to the replica is asynchronous.  It doesn't send a change then 
 wait for the response before sending the next one.  This all happens in 
 parallel.

 Does that make it clearer?
