I have a nice, performant cluster of 5 nodes. They're all on separate machines on the same switch. Life is good.
Now... Do I tell the consumers of my Elasticsearch cluster to hit any of the five nodes as suits their fancy? Or do I give them the name of ONE node? If so, is that node configured any differently? Or do I put all five behind a virtual IP and load balance them? I can't find any documentation on best practices here.
