-Low level client for Elasticsearch. It's goal is to provide common ground
-for all Elasticsearch-related code in Python. The client's features include:
-
-- Translating basic Python data types to and from json
-- Configurable automatic discovery of cluster nodes
-- Persistent connections
-- Load balancing (with pluggable selection strategy) across all available nodes
-- Failed connection penalization (time based - failed connections won't be
-  retried until a timeout is reached)
-- Thread safety
