Centralised Logging with the ELK Stack

Logs from many services shipped, parsed and searched in one place

3-4 weeks build

Overview

Every service writes logs; this puts them somewhere you can ask questions of them. Filebeat ships logs from an Nginx proxy and a set of app containers, Logstash parses them into structured fields, Elasticsearch indexes them with a retention policy, and Kibana dashboards show errors, slow requests and traffic by endpoint. The whole stack runs locally in Docker on a laptop with 8 GB of RAM.

What makes it stand up

  • 01Filebeat shipping from Nginx and several app containers
  • 02Grok and JSON parsing that turns raw lines into queryable fields
  • 03Index lifecycle policy that rolls over and deletes old logs
  • 04Kibana dashboards for errors, latency and top endpoints
  • 05Threshold alerts on error spikes through ElastAlert 2

Module breakdown

  1. 01

    Shipping

    Filebeat inputs, modules and back-pressure handling.

  2. 02

    Parsing

    Logstash pipelines with grok, date and GeoIP filters.

  3. 03

    Storage

    Index templates, mappings and lifecycle retention.

  4. 04

    Dashboards

    Kibana visualisations and saved searches for common incidents.

  5. 05

    Alerting

    Error-rate rules with email or Slack notifications.

After this, you will be able to

  • Explain why centralised, structured logs beat SSH and grep
  • Defend your field mappings and retention policy
  • Demo tracing a failing request through the logs live
