Using Elasticsearch 5.0.0 as a primary datastore?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi All,

I was wondering what your thoughts were today on using Elasticsearch 5.0.0 as a primary datastore. I know there has been some concerns in the past with durability, resiliency, robustness and data loss (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/resiliency/current/index.html), but would 5.0.0 be good enough?

Thanks!

IMHO that totally depends on your use case and requirements. Your best bet probably is to check the Resiliency - current status page.

Hope this helps,
Isabel
