Overview

The ELK Stack combines Elasticsearch for storage and search, Logstash for ingestion and Kibana for visualisation into a complete log and analytics platform. It is used to centralise logs, metrics and events and explore them through dashboards.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg ships the ELK Stack hardened, fully patched and preconfigured so the three services are wired together and ready to receive data, with indices on a dedicated disk. A unique admin credential is generated on first boot with no default login. Backed by 24/7 support.
