Rook ceph for Elastic Search

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello,

We are deploying elastic search on kubernetes farm and we have rook ceph as our distributed storage. I was going through earlier topic and there was enough reason than with ES being heavy used for File system. But, is there a plan at this point to support distributed storage?
what is the recommendation for kubernetes based deployments with distributed storage ?

The recommendation is not to use distributed storage, for both indexing performance and search performance. I'm not sure what you think could be done change that, the reasons for the performance benefits of local storage are quite fundamental. That's not to say that it won't work, Elasticsearch doesn't really care what filesystem you're using as long as it works correctly.

Elasticsearch does all the distributed/resilience things itself, so adding another layer of distributed software is often just unnecessary complexity.
