+# elasticsearch
+
+This module monitors Elasticsearch performance and health metrics.
+
+It produces:
+
+1. **Search performance** charts:
+ * Number of queries, fetches
+ * Time spent on queries, fetches
+ * Query and fetch latency
+
+2. **Indexing performance** charts:
+ * Number of documents indexed, index refreshes, flushes
+ * Time spent on indexing, refreshing, flushing
+ * Indexing and flushing latency
+
+3. **Memory usage and garbace collection** charts:
+ * JVM heap currently in use, committed
+ * Count of garbage collections
+ * Time spent on garbage collections
+
+4. **Host metrics** charts:
+ * Available file descriptors in percent
+ * Opened HTTP connections
+ * Cluster communication transport metrics
+
+5. **Queues and rejections** charts:
+ * Number of queued/rejected threads in thread pool
+
+6. **Fielddata cache** charts:
+ * Fielddata cache size
+ * Fielddata evictions and circuit breaker tripped count
+
+7. **Cluster health API** charts:
+ * Cluster status
+ * Nodes and tasks statistics
+ * Shards statistics
+
+8. **Cluster stats API** charts:
+ * Nodes statistics
+ * Query cache statistics
+ * Docs statistics
+ * Store statistics
+ * Indices and shards statistics
+
+### configuration
+
+Sample:
+
+```yaml
+local:
+ host : 'ipaddress' # Elasticsearch server ip address or hostname
+ port : 'port' # Port on which elasticsearch listens
+ cluster_health : True/False # Calls to cluster health elasticsearch API. Enabled by default.
+ cluster_stats : True/False # Calls to cluster stats elasticsearch API. Enabled by default.
+```
+
+If no configuration is given, module will fail to run.
