This section contains modules responsible for various aspects of the functionality in Elasticsearch. Each module has settings which may be:
_static_::
These settings must be set at the node level, either in the
`elasticsearch.yml` file, or as an environment variable or on the command line
when starting a node. They must be set on every relevant node in the cluster.
_dynamic_::
These settings can be dynamically updated on a live cluster with the
<<cluster-update-settings,cluster-update-settings>> API.
The modules in this section are:
<<modules-discovery,Discovery and cluster formation>>::
How nodes discover each other, elect a master and form a cluster.
<<modules-cluster,Shard allocation and cluster-level routing>>::
Settings to control where, when, and how shards are allocated to nodes.
<<modules-gateway,Gateway>>::
How many nodes need to join the cluster before recovery can start.
<<modules-http,HTTP>>::
Settings to control the HTTP REST interface.
<<modules-indices,Indices>>::
Global index-related settings.
<<modules-network,Network>>::
Controls default network settings.
<<modules-node,Node client>>::
A Java node client joins the cluster, but doesn't hold data or act as a master node.
<<modules-threadpool,Thread pools>>::
Information about the dedicated thread pools used in Elasticsearch.
<<modules-cross-cluster-search, {ccs-cap}>>::
{ccs-cap} enables executing search requests across more than one cluster
without joining them and acts as a federated client across them.
