Does ElasticSearch support multiple data center deployment with geo  
redundancy? I'm looking for active/active (preferred). If it is not  
supported, I'm thinking of two parallel deployments (one in each DC) and  
ingest the same data into both. I'll need to build logic in the client tier  
to handle geo failure here.

Right now, I would recommend to manage that on the client level as you suggested, mostly for network latency reasons.

My 2 cents

Not currently. There will be a snapshot/restore style functionality in  
version 1.0, which might be a first step towards a cluster 2 cluster style  
replication. Otherwise, I'd recommend using e.g. couchdb as your  
replicating datastore and have Elasticsearch clusters index from that.
