Elastic Stack - Search, Observe, Protect

Search is foundational to a wide variety of experiences — from finding documents to monitoring infrastructure to protecting against security threats. Elastic is a search company that powers three solutions built on one powerful stack: the Elastic Stack. Deploy them anywhere (from the cloud to bare metal) to instantly find actionable insights from any type of data.
 

Elastic Stack

Position

Built on an open source foundation, Elasticsearch and Kibana pave the way for diverse use cases that start with logging and span as far as your imagination takes you. Simplify the log query, and provide real-time data search, analysis and visualization. It can also monitor the host and service at the same time, and notify the user when an abnormality occurs or removed.
