In this article we are going to consider the two most common methods for Autoscaling in EKS cluster: The Horizontal Pod Autoscaler or HPA is a Kubernetes component that automatically scales your service based on metrics such as CPU utilization or others, as defined through the Kubernetes metric server. The HPA scales the pods in either a deployment or replica set, and is implemented as a Kubernetes API resource and a controller.
In this post, we will cover some of the main use cases Filebeat supports and we will examine various Filebeat configuration use cases. Filebeat, an Elastic Beat that’s based on the libbeat framework from Elastic, is a lightweight shipper for forwarding and centralizing log data. Installed as an agent on your servers, Filebeat monitors the log files or locations that you specify, collects log events, and forwards them either to Elasticsearch for indexing or to Logstash for further processing.
This article will focus on using fluentd and ElasticSearch (ES) to log for Kubernetes (k8s). This article contains useful information about microservices architecture, containers, and logging. Additionally, we have shared code and concise explanations on how to implement it, so that you can use it when you start logging in your own apps. Useful Terminology.
