An Ansible role by Elastic for installing and configuring Elasticsearch 6.x/7.x (with partial 8.x support) on Linux hosts. The project has been archived and is no longer maintained.
Use cases
- deploy elasticsearch cluster with ansible
- automate elasticsearch installation on ubuntu
- configure elasticsearch nodes via infrastructure as code
- provision elasticsearch on centos with ansible
- set up elasticsearch role in ansible playbook
When to choose
- you need to provision Elasticsearch 6.x/7.x on traditional Linux hosts with Ansible
- you maintain an existing deployment already built on this role
- you want a simple VM-based Elasticsearch setup without Kubernetes
When to avoid
- starting a new project - the repo is archived and unmaintained
- you run Kubernetes - use ECK instead
- you want managed Elasticsearch - use Elastic Cloud
- you need multi-instance-per-host setups - officially unsupported since 7.1.1
