We are using Elastic Search for free text search. We scan cache files and convert them into OCR. This allows our end users to search for any judgment given in the 1980s or 1990s based on their criteria.

I have used the Wazuh SIEM tool, an open-source SIEM tool that uses Elasticsearch for indexing. In this SIEM tool, we have a large amount of logs. Data are converted into alerts, then they are stored in our environment for monitoring and security purposes. For storing that data in Wazuh, we use Elasticsearch indexing. View full review »

I can describe a project where we use Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana (ELK stack) for our archiving objectives. I work in the security department of a Fintech company in the payment industry. We use the ELK stack to connect our internal systems with the bank's systems and we used Beats for data collection. We then store and forward this data to Elasticsearch for indexing and analysis, visualize and create alerts using Kibana based on categorized access logs, identifying and blocking malicious traffic or payloads.

The primary use case for Elasticsearch is to serve as a non-SQL database platform to replace traditional SQL processes. It is used in situations where unstructured data needs to be studied and searched.

For me, the primary use case of Elasticsearch is log analysis, as it is a text-based search tool. To explain how it works, let's consider its role at the backend. Elasticsearch operates on keywords used to fetch data. This is in contrast to some databases, where operations might be based on a key order or a primary key, allowing for various maintenance and analysis tasks.

Many people use Elasticsearch to store their application logs in JSON format. These logs are indexed, facilitating efficient search and analysis. Additionally, Elasticsearch integrates well with tools like Grafana and Kibana, enabling users to create diverse dashboards for data visualization.

There's also the text-based search scenario. For instance, if a user wants to search for something using a specific keyword, Elasticsearch excels in this area by creating multiple indices. 

Elasticsearch is a versatile tool that can store and retrieve information effectively, making it suitable for various applications across different industries.

Elastic has a lot of products. The one I'm most familiar with is Elastic Observability. It's designed to monitor our applications within an organization. It gives managers visibility into the activity and functionality of applications within the network. I've worked with it both on-premises and in the cloud. It helps us monitor applications and identify any issues. For example, we can see if an application is calling on a database if there are any delays or errors, and what might be causing those problems. It can also give us a proper view of the number of transactions done on the database and other information. It's not just pulling data for us; it's giving us real-time insights into the activities and functionalities of our applications within our network environment. View full review »

Elastic Enterprise Search is the repository for time series and data from the onsite instrument that monitors variables in our mining infrastructure called tailing dams. We monitor the tailing dams' physical stability and take the information from the sales force and manual data introduced by the operators. The system captures the information in the Elastic Enterprise Searchtime series, and we make calculations and trigger events and alerts based on those calculations. We save them as well as the events and alert times.

We use the solution for log gathering, analyzing, and dashboard creation (with Kibana).

For example, several clients require the ability to store and search logs freely without the constrictions that would be in place if a traditional database was used. 

Elasticsearch is perfect for these use cases since it is a non-SQL database with advanced querying capabilities based on the Lucene search engine. 

There is excellent support and a large community that answers possible questions online in detail and very quickly. I was amazed at the help I got several times.

It's a cloud-based service. At that time, we were using AWS, so we could get the same Elasticsearch capabilities from AWS. It was mostly a PaaS service that we could access. We had the Elasticsearch specific server and database hosted on an AWS instance, and then we fed the data to it and tried to fine-tune the algorithm to give the necessary search intelligence that we needed.

We're not using the latest version. We're using a version that was released one year ago.

The whole organization has about half a million users, but at any point of time, a hundred users might be using it.

All my use cases have been based more on observability for IT operations. We deal with it in terms of metrics, logs, transactions, traces, and so on. 

In terms of enterprise, most of the use cases are based on search capacity within the company to find documents and relevant information. That is the main use case.

Elastic Search is added advantage for us because we normally use it for our uptime monitoring and our log analysis. When we merge it with Splunk, it helps us correlate and do security monitoring. 

Elastic Enterprise Search comes embedded within a solution that we have developed for our clients. It's a payment solution. We've recently shipped it with Elastic Enterprise Search embedded. All the logs and all the internal communications get captured by Elastic Enterprise Search. It makes it easy for the IT teams who are doing uptime monitoring and troubleshooting to have a look at it. We have the security teams develop their own monitoring metrics and logs, if they wish, based on their deployment. 

The beauty of Elastic Enterprise Search is if they also have their own third-party tools, there's the ability to integrate and read off Elastic Enterprise Search and have any third-party tool process the logs as well. It is highly extensible.

I'm involved in architecting and implementing Elasticsearch-based solutions, catering to various use cases including IIoT, cybersecurity, IT Ops, and general logging and monitoring.

The intention of this article is not to compare AWS Elasticsearch with Elastic ELK Elasticsearch and at the end declare the winner. Elasticsearch by itself is one of the coolest and versatile Big Data stacks out there. If you are planning to use it in your organization or trying to evaluate if it is the right stack for your product/ solution, this article offers some insights from an architect's perspective.

We try to detect malicious files by the logs. The logs are all centralized including all our PCs, our callers, our servers, Linux, windows, Polaris names. We scan everything. Then we have pre-defined specific use cases that allow us to identify if there is an attack on the machine or indirectly by the endpoint. On top of that, we can check with users as we're not directly dealing with the configuration, so we can follow up on the alerts we receive. On top of that, we have the systems in place that allow us to detect if certain inexcusable items are on the system, such as malicious files. We can do this because we also retrieve the log files of the identifiers.

In terms of use case, we combine a lot of things with Elastic. It's two platforms, so with Elasticsearch, we're using the Beats, Kibana, and Suricata. It's a query engine and we use the information from our sensors. It gets ingested into that and we use the resources to get everything put on our dashboards. If something is detected, alerts come up right away and it's very, very accurate. The more ingest it receives, the better we can respond to threats. It's not just Elastic or Logstash, it's a combination of those and other tools that we would apply towards our threat detection and prevention. We have a partnership with ELK.
