Setting Up Elasticsearch, Kibana, Filebeat, and Logstash

To integrate Elasticsearch with Utimaco ESKM, the following components are required:

  1. Elasticsearch, which is a core engine used to store and index ESKM logs which can be downloaded from Download Elasticsearch.

  2. Kibana, which provides the web dashboard and visualization layer for Elasticsearch data which can be downloaded from Download Kibana.

  3. Filebeat, which is a lightweight log shipper used to collect and forward ESKM logs into Elasticsearch which can be downloaded from Download Filebeat.

  4. Logstash, which is a powerful data processing pipeline that ingests, transforms, and forwards ESKM logs into Elasticsearch, which can be downloaded from Download Logstash.

Once all components are downloaded, extract each ZIP package and place the extracted folders under a preferred directory, such as the C:\ directory.

If you change the directory path, ensure it is updated in all the places where it is used, including configuration files and related settings, to maintain consistency and prevent errors.
