Co-hosted Workshop
Presented at linux.conf.au
Abstract: Our tutorial session will enable participants to run up an ELK stack to process a dataset from data.gov.au, and leave them with the skills to apply the stack to nearly any dataset. The ELK stack, which is comprised of the open-source software projects Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana is a powerful data and analytics platform that makes it easy to take structured and unstructured data and present it in beautiful ways. We’ll take a sample dataset from data.gov.au, feed it through Logstash, store it in Elasticsearch and then create a dashboard of visualisations from the data in Kibana.
