Webinar | A Simple Introduction to the Elastic Stack

What is the ELK Stack?

Have you ever experienced this? Logs are scattered across multiple systems; troubleshooting means going through meters of terminal output, and in the end, you still don’t know exactly where the problem came from. That’s exactly what the Elastic Stack (ELK) is for—and that’s exactly what our next webinar will cover.

Practical Experience Over Theory: We’ll show you how Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana work together and how you can use them to regain control of your infrastructure.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this session:

• What Makes Up the Elastic Stack and How Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana Work Together
• How Logstash Transforms Unstructured Log Data into Searchable Objects
• How to Build Dashboards with Kibana Instead of Running Commands in the Terminal
• Basic Architecture and Installation of the Stack
• What Use Cases Is the Elastic Stack Suitable For?

Who would benefit from this webinar?

This webinar is a good fit for you if, as a DevOps engineer or sysadmin, you’ve been searching through logs manually or using various tools and are looking for a centralized solution. A basic understanding of Linux is sufficient; you don’t need any prior experience with Elastic.

At the end, there will be time for your questions.
