- Welcome to Simple Programming
In this video, let us see how to configure and use ELK Stack in other words ElasticSearch Logstash and Kibana for application logging
A major challenge in a distributed system (e.g. a system landscape of microservices) is to understand what is going on and even more importantly - what is going wrong, where and why. In this blog post we will see how we can use the ELK stack (i.e. Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana, ) from Elastic to aggregate log events from our microservices
There are lot of tools which can do the magic if used properly used together. One such popular set of tools are Elastic Search, Logstash and Kibana
ELK stack is a great open source stack for log aggregation and analytics
ElasticSearch - is a NoSQL database and distributed search and analytics engine
if you look at the benefits
easy installation and use
a powerful internal search technology (build using Apache Lucene)
a restful web interface
open source
noSQL (schema free json documents)
Logstash - is a log shipping and parsing service in other words its a transportation pipeline used to populate elastic search with data
benefits
open source tool
collects, parse and stores logs for futiure
its a log aggregator
open source
Kibana - a web interface that connects users wit the elasticSearchDatabase and enables visualization and search options for system operation users
benefits
open source data visualization
you can create graphical representation with logs very easily. even beginners can execute powerful log searches easily
ELK stack is getting quite popular nowadays with a very large open source community
If you have to compare Splunk with ELK - actually both are very good log platforms
Splunk actually edges out ELK because of the less configuration needed to configure in Splunk forwarders, when compared to Beats and Logstash in ELK
The ELK Stack is popular because it fulfills a need in the log analytics space. Splunk’s enterprise software has long been the market leader, but its numerous functionalities are increasingly not worth the expensive price.
ELK is a simple but robust log analysis platform that costs a fraction of the price.
But cost is huge factor nowadays, and the real question you should be asking is if you need all the features of the spunk for the kind of money you are paying ?
Ultimately, for ay small or medium enterprise having a low budget cost can go for ELK, and large enterprises should chooses splunk over ELK
or you would like to get it done for a less cost using ELK
Splunk is used by Adobe, CISCO, Symantec, Coca-cola, etc
ELK is used by StackOverflow, LinkedIn, NetFlix, OpenStack, Medium.com, Accenture, etc

Great video Sir 👍👍👍
thank you for such wonderful video.
Nice explanation. Thank you so much.
It is great if you explain the pros and cons of ELK
Thanks Gopal.. you have made it very simple . Are you planning to make any series of videos of ELK stack?
Awesome information, wonderful video with simple english. Please also share if any github URL.
Good head start!
Great work! Keep it up
Very nice sir
Why don't you use filebeat.
Hi Have u used syslog daemon for collecting the appln logs?
Nice job! And could you please show how to put a whole exception stack to a record like what you in microservice*?
Great. Can you please make a video on spring boot with splunk?
Hi, I have followed all the mentioned steps in this tutorial, also my logstash was up and running, however i couldnt see the index in elastic search.. what could be the possible issue?
@@simpleprogramming1612 i am also facing the same issue. please help
Hi, Were you able to solve this issue?
@@simpleprogramming1612 i am able to fix the issue after installing Java 11 (JDK 11) and using it
Same problems on Win10, change the path delimiter from "\" to "/" can solve my issue.
hi very nice can you also share how to stack entire json for later queries
Do we need Spring cloud sleuth when using ELK stack?
Nice video just request you to also please share the Spring boot Rest project github url also
Hola Sergio, este curso lo tienes en udemy?

Thanks for the tutorial. I was able to follow until I had to run logstash which gave the error below;
[2020-04-22T15:18:11,477][INFO ][logstash.runner ] Starting Logstash {"logstash.version"=>"7.6.2"}
[2020-04-22T15:18:11,832][INFO ][logstash.config.source.local.configpathloader] No config files found in path {:path=>"/Users/chux/Downloads/logstash-7.6.2/logstash.conf"}

[2020-04-22T15:18:17,140][INFO ][logstash.runner ] Logstash shut down
Below is my logstash.conf file but I can't seem to find the cause of the error.
input {
file {
type => "syslog"
path => "/Users/chux/NetBeansProjects/Microservice/Logs/Microservice.log"
start_position => "beginning"
}
}
output {
stdout {
codec => rubydebug
}
# sending properly parsed log events to elastic search
elasticsearch {
hosts => ["localhost:9200"]
}
}
Please where i can find this code ?
I am not able to see my logs in cat indices please can you help
Using these tools we can monitor production applications from local systems . Am I right?
@@simpleprogramming1612 got it. Thx bro for reply
log4j is not using"Logger.getLogger()" anymore . What can i use it instead of this method ?
@@simpleprogramming1612 Thank you. I changed it. After that couldn't see the microservices on localhost:9200/_cat/indices
how to add tomcat logs?
