+h1. Node gadgets for Elastic Search
+
+h2. Proxy server
+
+Basically, the "proxy":.proxy server can do the following for you:
+* It can restrict access to Elastic Search REST API (defaults to _safe_ operations only).
+* You can provide handlers to modify HTTP client request (e.g. you can ensure that @size@ is not too big) and Elastic Search response (e.g. you can remove sensitive data).
+* It can round-robin client requests among active HTTP enabled nodes (it periodically refreshes list of active nodes), thus, it can provide a single URL for clients to communicate with Elastic Search cluster.
+
+You can find simple example in "proxy-example.js":http://github.com/lukas-vlcek/node.es/proxy/proxy-example.js
