Hi, I like to use elasticsearch for indexing word documents. Now I research what is the best enviroment for setup. What I need is one node for each language of docs. A simple web interface for searching would be also nice. No need for any diagram, evaluation etc.. A couple of years ago I setup a similar solution with Cerebro for adding nodes but if I'm right there's no current version for elasticsearch 8.15 ? Can you recommend please what tools you would prefer for? OS is Windows Server 2019. Thank you, Andre ---

This is of course an advantage. So in this case one node is fine. Thank you. ---

The reason to go to 3 nodes (not 2) would be if you want resiliency and high availability as the cluster can continue operating even of one of the nodes go down. ---

What I'm looking for is a more comfortable solution than Windows indexer. Currently I open the document folder (seperated by language) and start typing so indexer search. The issue is that while typing sometimes chars skipped / ignored and sometimes indexer hangs reporting no / wrong results. So availbility is fine but if I need to restart it's not a big topics. ---
