== Overview
Official low-level client for Elasticsearch. Allows to communicate with an
Elasticsearch cluster through http. Compatible with all elasticsearch versions.
=== Features
The low-level client's features include:
* minimal dependencies
* load balancing across all available nodes
* failover in case of node failures and upon specific response codes
* failed connection penalization (whether a failed node is retried depends on
how many consecutive times it failed; the more failed attempts the longer the
client will wait before trying that same node again)
* persistent connections
* trace logging of requests and responses
* optional automatic <<sniffer,discovery of cluster nodes>>
