Elastic Stack

Implementation and Operation

ExperTeach Networking Logo

In times of CI/CD and agile, applications and infrastructures are changing rapidly. Rapid error detection and localization - preferably before the end users - are the most important goals of software and infrastructure monitoring. Logging is one of many tools that can be used to detect and analyze errors.

In the environment of microservices and distributed systems, tools such as Elastic Stack are becoming increasingly important. In this course, you will get to know the products of the Elastic Stack (Beats, Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana) both individually and in their interaction. In the course of this training, you will build a complete Elastic Stack solution, accompanied by a discussion of the technical possibilities and system limits.

This will give you a deep insight into the installation, configuration and basic operation of Elastic Stack. In addition, many tips and tricks on troubleshooting and high availability are provided. Many topics are worked through together and then put into practice.

Target Group

The course is aimed at anyone who is involved in the support and implementation of Elastic Stack and wants to get up to speed at a technical level

Knowledge Prerequisites

Basic know-how in the areas of monitoring concepts, Linux and multi-tier architectures is helpful, but not a prerequisite.

Classroom training

Do you prefer the classic training method? A course in one of our Training Centers, with a competent trainer and the direct exchange between all course participants? Then you should book one of our classroom training dates!

Hybrid training

Hybrid training means that online participants can additionally attend a classroom course. The dynamics of a real seminar are maintained, and the online participants are able to benefit from that. Online participants of a hybrid course use a collaboration platform, such as WebEx Training Center or Saba Meeting. To do this, a PC with browser and Internet access is required, as well as a headset and ideally a Web cam. In the seminar room, we use specially developed and customized audio- and video-technologies. This makes sure that the communication between all persons involved works in a convenient and fault-free way.

Online training

You wish to attend a course in online mode? We offer you online course dates for this course topic. To attend these seminars, you need to have a PC with Internet access (minimum data rate 1Mbps), a headset when working via VoIP and optionally a camera. For further information and technical recommendations, please refer to.

Tailor-made courses

You need a special course for your team? In addition to our standard offer, we will also support you in creating your customized courses, which precisely meet your individual demands. We will be glad to consult you and create an individual offer for you.
