Hi all,  
I need to develop a solution using elasticsearch and my customer would prefer c # code than java code.  
No problem, but I'm wondering if there are any major reasons why we should address our choice to Java (for example, I see that .NET APIs for version 6.0 are not yet present).

What are the major differences in the variety of APIs and performance between the two clients? Are there features that the .NET Client doesn't support?

Thanks
