hello ElasticSearch team - First of all a big thanks to you for rolling out the snapshot and restore functionality in 0.90.7 version. I think it is of great use. I have a question on multi-data center deployment. I am wondering if I can leverage this snapshot/restore functionality for multi data center deployment? Can you pl comment? -Amit. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hey, snapshot/restore has not been released with 0.90.7 - it is only part of the github master branch (and will be part of the next 1.0.0 beta release). You could use snapshot/restore for multi data center deployment, but as this functionality does not work on a per document basis (but rather per lucene segment), this will not work for full realtime replication functionality your application might require (it is more intended for backup. Do a snapshot, store somewhere, fire up some other ES cluster, restore from that snapshot). Hope this helps. --Alex On Fri, Nov 15, 2013 at 3:57 AM, Amit Soni [amitsoni29@gmail.com](mailto:amitsoni29@gmail.com) wrote: > hello Elasticsearch team - First of all a big thanks to you for rolling > out the snapshot and restore functionality in 0.90.7 version.
