Currently I've to do multiple http requests to fetch some metrics with different criteria from our elasticsearch cluster, it would be nice if elasticsearch's zmon client implements msearchMulti search API
We've elasticsearch client and I am running a handful of queries each minute to check the state of the indexes, problematic documents, correct documents, write rates .. etc, currently I am doing each one of them as single check with a dedicated request elasticsearch(url).count(), but elasticsearch has an interesting API called msearch that enables us to do multiple searches once and returning the result as an array of responses. this saves a quite good amount of requests that only executes for ZMON.
I think a good approach to tackle this challenge is to implement msearch in zmon's elasticsearch worker which IS a write safe API
