Elastic stack (ELK) on Docker - JohnBryce

Maintaner - Yaniv cohen - Yanivomc@gmail.com

Running the latest version of the Elastic stack with Docker and Docker Compose.

It will give you the ability to analyze any data set by using the searching/aggregation capabilities of Elasticsearch and the visualization power of Kibana.

The environment also has NGINX Configured on port 8080 to send traffic to Kibana for security and LB if needed.

Everything is based on the official Docker images from Elastic:

• elasticsearch
• logstash
• kibana
