Hi,

I've just released my changes to the elasticsearch-zookeeper plugin for  
compatibility with elasticsearch 1.3. You may find it at  
[https://github.com/grmblfrz/elasticsearch-zookeeper/releases](https://github.com/grmblfrz/elasticsearch-zookeeper/releases). Maybe someone  
will find it useful.

Greetings, Swen

Hello Vineeth,

in my experience the plugin is much more reliable than zen-discovery. With  
zen-discovery I was frequently confronted with split-brain situations,  
which stopped when I started using elasticsearch-zookeeper. For me it is  
much more reliable but your mileage may vary.  
Interesting read regarding elasticsearch reliability:  
[Jepsen: Elasticsearch](http://aphyr.com/posts/317-call-me-maybe-elasticsearch) (unfortunately,  
elasticsearch-zookeeper was not tested).  
There is another discovery plugin (eskka [https://github.com/shikhar/eskka](https://github.com/shikhar/eskka))  
which according to the comments in the article might be more robust.

Hope this helps
