How does ElasticSearch work?

Answer»

The Working of ElasticSearch is summarized as follows:

  • Firstly, raw data is GATHERED from a variety of sources, such as log files, SYSTEM METRICS, or web applications. Beats are lightweight data shipping agents (data shippers) that collect different types of data and forward it to LOGSTASH.
  • This raw data is normalized, analyzed, and enriched prior to being indexed in Elasticsearch. Logstash performs several transformations and enhancements, and then sends the data to be indexed in Elasticsearch.
  • As SOON as the data has been indexed in Elasticsearch, then users can run queries against it, and then aggregate it to generate insights. ElasticSearch enables you to store, search, and analyze vast or huge amounts of data in near real-time, providing results in milliseconds.
  • Lastly, from Kibana, users can create powerful visualizations of data, and visualize complex queries through interactive diagrams, geospatial data, and graphs.
