Log file processing with Logstash and Elastic Search

In an environment where log files are need to be read and analysed frequently to monitor network related errors, Logstash (OPEN SOURCE) is used in conjunction with Elastic search

Logstash is a software which helps keep reading log files from different sources and transform them (with pipe lining) and send it to a store (with indexes) so that from the store the data can be read and analysed

Elastic search is an example of a store to which the pipelined data can be transferred and from which the data can be read using indexes
