Details
It looks like there is a weather event predicted for Thursday. I will be making a decision on whether to have the meeting or not by 5pm on Thursday. I will be posting on the website, meetup.com and sending out email.
Right now we will NOT be having pizza at the meeting since we haven't gotten any donations for the pizza fund if you would like to donate please go to http://www.lopsa.org and hit the donate button on the left menu.
Topic: Systems Log Aggregation using ElasticSearch/LogStash/Kibana
Speaker: Peter Grace
Date: Thursday, March 5th, 2015
Time: 7:00pm (social), 7:30pm (discussion)
This talk will cover using ElasticSearch, Logstash and Kibana as a cooperative software collection to index and search your log entries. After covering the basics of what each piece of software does, we will cover how to use the three together (along with some other freely available tools) to centralize all of your logs into a simple, searchable web interface."
