Hi there, I am trying to find out, what license I need to implement multiple nodes of elasticsearch and example I have 3 nodes those that means I have 1 primary nodes and 2 secondary nodes, and the secondary nodes stands as a load balancer ? thank you, DwiAnugrah ---

There are no license restrictions for clustering (that I'm aware of). Also, Elasticsearch is a bit different from some other DBs (like MSSQL), there are no primary/secondary's, all nodes are for the most part equal. [Node | Elasticsearch Guide [7.13] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-node.html) explains the node roles better. ---
