I don't find Elastic Search Write Consistency in the recent releases. But same was available in the 2.x releases . Is there any new feature equivalent to Write Consistency ?? ---

Hi @parthiban_p, write consistency was replaced by [wait for active shards](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.1/docs-index_.html#index-wait-for-active-shards) in Elasticsearch 5.0. If you are interested in more details, please read the description of [#19454](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/19454) on Github. Daniel ---
