EFK Stack: Enterprise-Grade Logging and Monitoring
Introduction
Course Introduction
Hello and welcome to this Kubernetes course on Elasticsearch, Fluent Bit, and Kibana. My name is Raghunandana Sanur, and I will be your instructor throughout this lesson.
Large organizations such as Netflix, Amazon, and Airbnb leverage the microservices architecture. This approach results in hundreds of applications generating thousands or even millions of log lines. Analyzing these logs in one centralized location is vital for effective monitoring and troubleshooting. Elasticsearch is at the heart of this process, providing robust capabilities for indexing, searching, and managing log data.
In this lesson, we will cover:
- The fundamentals of Elasticsearch, including indexing, mappings, and document management.
- How Kibana can be used to create dynamic visualizations from log data.
- The role of Fluent Bit as a lightweight log shipper that seamlessly integrates with Elasticsearch and Kibana.
