How Refinery Helps With Sampling Complex Event Data

Sampling is the practice of extracting a subset of data from a dataset to make conclusions about that larger dataset.

A simplified stack monitoring experience in Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes

To monitor your Elastic Stack with Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK), you can deploy Metricbeat and Filebeat to collect metrics and logs and send them to the monitoring cluster, as mentioned in this blog. However, this requires understanding and managing the complexity of Beats configuration and Kubernetes role-based access control (RBAC). Now, in ECK 1.7, the Elasticsearch and Kibana resources have been enhanced to let us specify a reference to a monitoring cluster.
