Cross cluster search works by configuring a remote cluster in the cluster state and connecting only to a
|
||||
limited number of nodes in the remote cluster. Each remote cluster is referenced by a name and a list of seed nodes.
|
||||
Those seed nodes are used to discover nodes in the remote cluster which are eligible as _gateway nodes_.
|
||||
When a remote cluster is registered, its cluster state is retrieved from one of the seed nodes so that up to 3
|
||||
_gateway nodes_ are selected to be connected to as part of upcoming cross cluster search requests.
|
||||
Cross cluster search requests consist of uni-directional connections from the coordinating node to the previously
|
||||
selected remote nodes only. It is possible to tag which nodes should be selected through
|
||||
node attributes (see <<cross-cluster-search-settings>>).
|
||||
|
||||
Each node in a cluster that has remote clusters configured connects to one or more _gateway nodes_ and uses
|
||||
them to federate search requests to the remote cluster.
