Hi,
the connection is lazy so it will only be opened once you make a
request - just instantiating a client like this will not create any
connections.
Once a connection is created the python client will try to hold on to
it as long as possible (it uses urllib3 to do the connection pooling
itself)
How long does the connection object stay open in ES ?
Eg. For Python
es = elasticsearch.Elasticsearch([
{'host': 'localhost', 'port': 9200}
])
I have a web service that keeps running on production. Do I need to check
if the connection is open after x time ?
