Hi, I have deployed elasticsearch on GKE with cluster size : 3 under Asia region. Is it possible to add a new cluster under US region in GKE and join this one to the above cluster ( which is located in asia region). If possible can anyone suggest on how to do the same. Please help me on this. Thanks! ---

Elasticsearch requires low latencies between all nodes in the cluster so deployments across regions are problematic and not supported. I would recommend you instead set up two separate clusters and index to both in parallel or use cross-cluster search. ---

@Christian_Dahlqvist : So are you telling that its not possible to form a cluster with different regions in GKE ( I mean one in Asia region and another in US region). Its not supported by elastic ? ---

Separate clusters is supported, but not a single cluster distributed across regions. ---
