In 2.4 there is still warning regarding bootstrap validation but not mandatory step to run elasticsearch.  
i don't know on what scenario i have required bootstrap validation.

but in my current situation i just using elasticsearch as a database for insertion and deletion that's it rest network & preprocessing part is take care by logstash & filebeat.

Can You Suggest anything on this topic also
