+# Elasticsearch monitoring with Netdata
+
+Monitors [Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/products/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 garbage 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
+
+9. **Indices** charts (per index statistics, disabled by default):
+
+ - Docs count
+ - Store size
+ - Num of replicas
+ - Health status
+
+## Configuration
+
+Edit the `python.d/elasticsearch.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
+directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
+sudo ./edit-config python.d/elasticsearch.conf
+```
+
+Sample:
+
+```yaml
+local:
+ host : 'ipaddress' # Elasticsearch server ip address or hostname.
+ port : 'port' # Port on which elasticsearch listens.
+ scheme : 'http' # URL scheme. Use 'https' if your elasticsearch uses TLS.
+ node_status : yes/no # Get metrics from "/_nodes/_local/stats". Enabled by default.
+ cluster_health : yes/no # Get metrics from "/_cluster/health". Enabled by default.
+ cluster_stats : yes/no # Get metrics from "'/_cluster/stats". Enabled by default.
+ indices_stats : yes/no # Get metrics from "/_cat/indices". Disabled by default.
+```
+
+If no configuration is given, module will try to connect to `http://127.0.0.1:9200`.
