ES Connection object - Lifetime

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

How long does the connection object stay open in ES ?

Eg. For Python

es = elasticsearch.Elasticsearch([
{'host': 'localhost', 'port': 9200}
])

I have a web service that keeps running on production. Do I need to check
if the connection is open after x time ? say 24 hrs ?
How can I set it to run all the time ?

Thanks.

Hi,

the connection is lazy so it will only be opened once you make a
request - just instantiating a client like this will not create any
connections.

Once a connection is created the python client will try to hold on to
it as long as possible (it uses urllib3 to do the connection pooling
itself) and reuse it. Even if it's closed you don't have to check and
it will automatically reopen.

Hope this helps,
Honza
