cloudwatcher

Cloudwatcher pushes metrics about an Elasticsearch cluster to AWS CloudWatch, mainly to run AWS Autoscaling Groups. The metrics include:

• File system utilization (data nodes only)
• JVM heap utilization (both in total, and per-memory pool)
• JVM garbage collection stats

The metrics are both in total, and broken out by node role (master, data, etc...).
