Elasticsearch is a distributed, RESTful search and analytics engine capable of solving a growing number of use cases. As the heart of the Elastic Stack, it centrally stores your data so you can discover the expected and uncover the unexpected. This image uses search-guard instead of shield to handle trusted users.

run the following command on your host:

sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

You can set it permanently by modifying vm.max_map_count setting in your /etc/sysctl.conf.

Log level from witch elasticsearch echoes logs.

If true then searchguard enterprise features are enabled. Keep in mind that you need to obtain a commercial license if you want to run this features in production!

ES cluster name.

This setting tells Elasticsearch to not elect a master unless there are enough master-eligible nodes available. Only then will an election take place. We recommand to set this variable to (number of nodes / 2) + 1

List of hosts for node discovery (discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts)

ES cluster name.

Set to true (default) makes it eligible to be elected as the master node, which controls the cluster.

Data nodes hold data and perform data related operations such as CRUD, search, and aggregations.

Ingest nodes are able to apply an ingest pipeline to a document in order to transform and enrich the document before indexing. With a heavy ingest load, it makes sense to use dedicated ingest nodes and to mark the master and data nodes as NODE_INGEST: false.

Enable or disable cross-origin resource sharing, i.e. whether a browser on another origin can execute requests against Elasticsearch. Note that if the client does not send a pre-flight request with an Origin header or it does not check the response headers from the server to validate the Access-Control-Allow-Origin response header, then cross-origin security is compromised.

Which origins to allow. Note that * is a valid value but is considered a security risk as your elasticsearch instance is open to cross origin requests from anywhere.

The node will bind to this hostname or IP address and advertise this host to other nodes in the cluster. Accepts an IP address, hostname, a special value, or an array of any combination of these.

• If true then https is bound on 9200

Configuration file is located in /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml if you follow the same volume mapping as in the docker-compose example above.

You can find default config there.
