Since I am new to the world of cloud computing (and I'm planning on ditching  
hdfs as ElasticSearchs' gateway), I would like to ask the community what you  
would recommend I use instead as ElasticSearch's cloud gateway?

Preferably something that I can build privately and has available paid  
support (easier to recommend to management). Bonus points if it's open  
source (just because I'm bias) 🙂

## Thanks,

If you are after having a gateway implementation, then you don't really need  
a whole private cloud for it. You can simply add NFS and store the gateway  
there (no need for really souped up one).

You can also check ES mail list archive, there has been some discussions  
regarding NFS gateway. Clinton was so kind to share his experience and  
details about his setup here:
