Ha.

Lovely, but the missing features is basically what makes Elasticsearch great!

    Missing features: 
    Clustering and High Availability

Nothing that can't be fixed though.

yes i agree - its comparatively easy to create software that is optimal as long as it runs in a single machine.

The distributed systems and related constraints and guarantees is what takes the resources !

( I would assume he would use a system based on raft to offer the above, or using something like Infinispan, helix or hazelcast kinda )

I wonder if a Nomad/Consul stack could make this clusterable.

I would embed nats, a golang message queue that offers clustering and persistence, a great bulding block for clustered support.
