<h2>Resources Usage Consideration</h2>

<p>
This Elasticsearch client relies on a <code>RestClient</code> using the Apache HTTP Async Client. By default, it will start one
dispatcher thread, and a number of worker threads used by the connection manager. There will be as many worker thread as the number
of locally detected processors/cores on the NiFi host. Consequently, it is highly recommended to have only one instance of this
controller service per remote Elasticsearch destination and have this controller service shared across all of the Elasticsearch
processors of the NiFi flows. Having a very high number of instances could lead to resource starvation and result in OOM errors.
