How to minimize the amount of data transfered between es nodes

I have an interesting es cluster setup. My data nodes are at remote sites
from one another. The links between them are slow and expensive. Right
now there is one index with a shard on each remote data node.

I'd like to minimize the amount of data traveling over the slow and
expensive links between data nodes. Is there a way to minimize or eliminate
the amount of data being sent between data nodes? I realize I may be
asking how to disable the central feature in es.

I don't believe this is a recommended /supported setup and I'm surprised
you aren't seeing lots of errors.

I'd first try three nodes in one data center and try remote search calls to
that. If that does not work for your requirements then I would try two
nodes in each data center and submitting the document to each one. in that
scenario you might try something like Scrutineer to keep the document in
sync.

I hope that helps.
