Monitoring Infrastructure Using the Elastic Stack

Explore the Elastic Stack for powerful monitoring infrastructure in this comprehensive workshop from linux.conf.au. Learn how to handle large volumes of data generated by IoT projects using open-source tools. Discover the four key components of the Elastic Stack: Beats for lightweight data forwarding, Logstash for parsing and enrichment, Elasticsearch for storage and analysis, and Kibana for visualization. Gain hands-on experience setting up connected Docker containers to capture logs and metrics from your laptop, create analysis dashboards, and develop ideas for future projects. Cover topics including Elasticsearch, Kibana, Kubernetes, Filebeat, Logstash, Docker Compose, and system modules. Walk away with practical knowledge to implement robust monitoring solutions for microservices, IoT metrics, and containerized applications.
