docker-compose elk stack

ItsKarma/docker-elk

Usage

This stack is designed and instructions are provided for AWS EC2 and requires some EBS volumes to be mounted to persist data. These instructions can be translated for use on another system, but will not be supported at this time.

Attach EBS volumes via aws console or cli

attach EBS volume to: /dev/sde - 40G
attach EBS volume to: /dev/sdl - 1G
attach EBS volume to: /dev/sdk - 1G

Create 1 partition consuming the entire disk for each volume mounted

fdisk /dev/sde
mkfs -t ext4 /dev/xvde1
fdisk /dev/sdl
mkfs -t ext4 /dev/xvdl1
fdisk /dev/sdk
mkfs -t ext4 /dev/xvdk1

Create the directories to mount

mkdir /data{elasticsearch,logstash,kibana}
mount /dev/xvde1 /data/elasticsearch
mount /dev/xvdl1 /data/logstash
mount /dev/xvdk1 /data/kibana

Create the data directory for elasticsearch

mkdir /data/elasticsearch/data

Install docker-compose via pip

pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -U docker-compose

Clone the repo and run

git clone https://github.com/ItsKarma/docker-elk.git ~/elk
cd ~/elk
docker-compose up
