Problem to solve

  • ease of use for elastic search users

Further details

  • gitlab ee supports elastic search, but does not ship it with omnibus

Proposal

  • ship a working (isolated) version of elasticsearch with omnibus and auto configure it by default, if no other server is setup

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

  • elastic search enabled for all EE installations by default
