Elasticsearch (ELK) stack on Docker

The main goal for creating this stack was to provide the environment of ELK(Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana) for different types of POCs. 🙂

In the end result you will get a beautiful kibana dashboard like this:-

We are using the official image from Elastic:-

This compose setup will setup these things for you:-

Elasticsearch
Kibana
Logstash
Apache

Requirements

Docker Compose version 1.12.0+
Host Machine with 1.5GB Ram

Overview

├── apache         ---> Dockerfile and confiuration file for apache
├── elasticsearch  ---> Dockerfile and configuration file for elasticsearch
├── img            ---> For storing image and screenshots
