ELK : A Killer Solution for Log Analysis

 

Introduction


Overview


Installation

One of the ways of installing ELK stack, as per my personal preference is not to use the Installer Wizard, rather download the corresponding zip from ElasticSearch and start the services via command line

Elastic Search: Download the latest version.

Logstash: Download the latest version.

Kibana: Download the latest version.

Filebeat: Download the latest version.

For Logstash, Kibana, and Filebeat the configuration file plays an important role and the input & output should be provided for Logstash and Filebeat. And for Kibana, the elastic search cluster details to which it should be listening.

Once successfully started these applications as service, navigate to 

  • http://localhost:9200 for fetching the elastic search cluster details.
  • http://localhost:5601 for viewing the Kibana.

First Run


For configuring ELK Stack for the below flow diagram:



Use the configure files as per my Github project: ELK
