title: Running Elasticsearch server on a mobile device (android / iphone / ios)
body: <p>I would like to know if it is possible to run an Elasticsearch server on a mobile device (android / iphone / ios) and if so, how I should go about doing it.</p>
  
  <p>In my case, the reason for doing it is to have an offline database on the device that is easily searchable (with all elasticsearch advanced functions)</p>
  
  <p>Optionally, I would maybe also use elasticsearch's cluster/replication capacities to keep the offline data on the device synced with a server.</p>
