The problem I have with ELK is Kibana, it's not a tool designed to watch logs but to do reporting.

- mdaniel 12y agoThat depends on how one defines "watch logs". Looking at the text, no; looking at the metrics, yes. We had a dashboard that would graph the number of errors grouped by the component over a given span of time. If we saw the chart grow beyond our tolerance, that's when we would break out elasticsearch-head or grep or $tool and try to dig into the details. Do you have a tool in mind that does what you are describing and thus would supplement Kibana?
