The real power of Elasticsearch for me is the ability to filter logs by:
1. exact match this nested JSON field (with support for lists of values)
2. negative match this nested JSON field (with support for lists of values)
coupled with the ability to filter by "timeframe", then pump it through to visualizations (tables/graphs) in Kibana
MeiliSearch would be cool if it spoke the API Kibana expects from Elasticsearch
- mleonhard 7y agoIf only one could set up Elasticsearch and Kibana using infrastructure-as-code (IaC). I spent several days trying and still haven't succeeded. Elasticsearch config is full of foot-guns. There are tons of easy setup examples but they lack access control and encryption. All of my servers must write logs. When one of them gets cracked, the attacker must not be able to read all the other servers' logs and steal all the PII. An attacker can use an ARP attack to MITM server connections to Elasticsearch. Without encryption, that attack yields all the PII. I hope Meilisearch can someday help fill this gap in the free DevOps toolset.
