Hello there, I have a question regarding the cost my company would pay forelastic search cluster.
The company will receive 2 billion of data per year, in the future it is gonna be tough to handle them with single node elastic search. How many nodes I need to handle this amount of data, i mean I want a really measure. (or is it better to integrate big data architecture with this huge amount of data such as Hadoop with Spark)
