Summary
This is Part 1 in a three-part series on a multi-cluster Elasticsearch (ES) build with cross-cluster replication and search enablement. This post covers the build of the West cluster, which is implemented in Kubernetes.

- Part 3: Replication + Search
Architecture
The West cluster is implemented as an Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK). I'm using Kind for the Kubernetes environment, which allows for a self-contained environment suitable for a capable laptop. Additionally, I use cloud-provider-kind to provide native load-balancer functionality.
