==== Voting-only master nodes
A new <<voting-only-node,`node.voting-only`>> role has been introduced that
allows nodes to participate in elections even though they are not eligible to become the master.
A new {ref}/modules-node.html#voting-only-node[`node.voting-only`] role has been
introduced that allows nodes to participate in elections even though they are
not eligible to become the master.
The benefit is that these nodes still help with high availability while
requiring less CPU and heap than master nodes.
