I have a customer with a very unique network environment. They will have multiple ES clusters worldwide. The only way those clusters can talk to a central region is via web proxies that don't support SOCK5 and can't anytime soon for a variety of political reasons.
Does anyone know of a method or tool to achieve something like rsync over HTTPS so that I can have a centralized Splunk instance that I use to configure ES, TAs, dashboards, etc. and the distributed ES clusters can pull down the content and keep it in sync?
Thanks.

A globally accessible Deployment Server that all the ES instances can pull their configurations from...
https://github.com/Bridgewater/appetite might help here but it might not quite match your particular scenario...
garethatiag... thanks. Appetite looks pretty cool. It wouldn't work for my customer environment though. The ES clusters that need to have their apps synchronized can only pull from the central location.
I've used GitHub to sync config globally before, but I don't know if you have that option here.
tmarlette... that's a great idea. They'd have to run their own internal git server on that central Splunk instance, but that should allow git requests to flow between the proxies.
Thanks!
