If you run into this Elasticsearch warning:

you may have to:

sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

If you run into this Elasticsearch error:

max file descriptors [4096] for elasticsearch process is too low, increase to at least [65535]

you may have to increase the ulimits.nofile of elasticsearch in your docker-compose.yml:

services:
  elasticsearch:
    ulimits:
      nofile:
        soft: 65535
        hard: 262144
