Docker Swarm's logging model shifts from individual container logs to service-level aggregation. The docker service logs command batch-retrieves logs present at the time of execution, pulling data from all containers that belong to a service across your cluster. This approach gives you a unified view of distributed applications, but it comes with its patterns and considerations for effective observability.

Easily enable Elastic add-on within the Amazon EKS Console for streamlined monitoring and quick data onboarding. Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) makes running Kubernetes on AWS simple and scalable. But as your workloads grow, so does the need for robust monitoring and observability. Enter Elastic Agent, a powerful, unified way to collect logs, metrics, and security data from your EKS clusters, all managed through Elastic Fleet.

In this article, discover how the Qovery engineering team built a high-performance Logs Interface to handle thousands of lines of data efficiently.

Most people are probably familiar with the word “grok” from Robert A. Heinlein’s novel A Stranger in a Strange Land, in which it is used to describe a deep, almost mystical understanding of something. ‍ Grok is also the name of a plugin for LogStash that enables you to parse and analyze log data using a syntax similar to regular expressions, but specialized for various log formats and fields.

Two years ago, a power outage knocked a Dropbox data center offline. It wasn’t just any data center. It was the only one where Dropbox hosted Grafana Loki, meaning engineers couldn’t access their log data. “We had considered a data center outage when we were rolling out Loki, but it had just never risen up in priority enough to get put into multiple data centers,” said Chris Hodges, an infrastructure software engineer at the cloud storage company.

Today’s public sector organizations are tasked with delivering a staggering amount of technology capabilities to support a growing set of digital services, meet IT modernization goals, and continue to protect against a wide range of attack vectors. Cloud technology adoption has played a significant role in ensuring that ongoing IT modernization not only aligns with each organization’s mission-strategic capabilities but also enables efficiencies of scale.

Elastic Cloud Serverless provides the fastest way to start and scale security, observability, and search solutions — without managing infrastructure. Today, we are excited to announce the general availability of Elastic Cloud Serverless on Microsoft Azure — now available in the EastUS region. Elastic Cloud Serverless provides the fastest way to start and scale security, observability, and search solutions without managing infrastructure.

Stateless architecture that auto-scales no matter your data, usage, and performance needs How do you take a stateful, performance-critical system like Elasticsearch and make it serverless? At Elastic, we reimagined everything — from storage to orchestration — to build a truly serverless platform that customers can trust. Elastic Cloud Serverless is a fully managed, cloud-native platform designed to bring the power of Elastic Stack to developers without the operational burden.
