Using ElasticSearch, Logstash & Kibana to create realtime dashboards

Speaker: Alexander Reelsen, ElasticSearch

ElasticSearch is often perceived as a pure full-text search engine, however another huge use-case is log management & centralizing - especially in combination with Logstash. The last missing piece is Kibana, which takes over the visualizing part.

After a brief introduction into each of the three products, We will leave the theoretical part behind and try to build a dashboard, which gets its data fed from a real time HTTP stream.

So if you know a nice public stream, we can try to incorporate it live on stage and try to build our own dashboard on top of the freshly indexed data, using kibana.
