Hi all,

I was under the impression that as of Elasticsearch V1.0 that authenticated  
access was going to be integrated without having to use a third-party proxy  
(i.e. nginx)?

Elasticsearch is normally quite well documented and i can't seem to find  
anything regards setting this up.

Probably just me not looking hard enough or i could be totally wrong.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers,  
Simon

Quite the opposite: the Elasticsearch team and others have said that  
authentication belongs outside of the application. Or at least, security  
was not a high priority.

It seems like they are working on security and a release should be  
forthcoming:

Question remains if this will be a paid product like Marvel or not.
