May 18, 2015

Table of contents

Fresh from GeeCON in Krakow…we have another Elasticsearch and Logging manifesto from Sematext engineers — and book authors — Rafal Kuc and Radu Gheorghe.  As with many of their previous presentations, Radu and Rafal go into detail on Elasticsearch, Logstash and Rsyslog topics like:

  • How Elasticsearch, Logstash and Rsyslog work
  • Tuning Elasticsearch
  • Using, scaling, and tuning Logstash
  • Using and tuning Rsyslog
  • Rsyslog with JSON parsing
  • Hardware and data tests
  • …and lots more along these lines

[Note: Video of the talk coming soon to this post!]

If you find this stuff interesting and have similar challenges, then drop us a line to chat about our Elasticsearch and Logging consulting services and Elasticsearch (and Solr, too) production support.  Oh yeah, and we’re hiring worldwide if you are into Logging, Monitoring, Search, or Big Data Analytics as much as Radu and Rafal!
