Hello there, I am trying to establish a remote cluster connection for high usability between two remote machines. However, although I can access the Elastic Search port, I cannot connect to the remote cluster. Can you help me on how to do with sample? ---

Welcome to our community! 😃 > [@emreorucoglu](#): > > I am trying to establish a remote cluster connection for high usability between two remote machines We do not recommend that as Elasticsearch can be sensitive to latency, and disconnects between nodes can cause problems with HA. ---
