Collecting Logs into Elasticsearch and S3

As a "staging area" for such complementary backends, AWS's S3 is a great fit. As an added bonus, S3 serves as a highly durable archiving backend. This article shows how to Collect Apache httpd logs and syslogs across web servers.Securely ship the collected logs into the aggregator Fluentd in near real-time.Store the collected logs into Elasticsearch and S3.Visualize the data with Kibana in real-time. Prerequisites A basic understanding of FluentdAWS account credentials In this guide, we assume we are running td-agent on Ubuntu Precise. Setup: Elasticsearch and Kibana Add Elasticsearch's GPG key: $ sudo get -O - | sudo apt-key add - $ sudo echo "deb stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elasticsearch.list $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install elasticsearch.

They collect about 10 million data points a day. Yes, that’s big data. My highest priority was to allow them to browse the data they collect so that they can ensure that the data points are consistent and contain all the attributes required to generate the reports and dashboards they need.

Logstash Plugin for Amazon DynamoDB

The Logstash plugin for DynamoDB uses DynamoDB Streams to parse and output data as it is added to a DynamoDB table. After you install and activate the Logstash plugin for DynamoDB, it scans the data in the specified table, and then it starts consuming your updates using Streams and then outputs them to Elasticsearch, or a Logstash output of your choice. Logstash is a data pipeline service that processes data, parses data, and then outputs it to a selected location in a selected format. Bigdesk for elasticsearch. Using Elasticsearch on Amazon EC2.
