In Detail

Elastic Stack is powered by the most popular open source search engine, ElasticSearch, currently used throughout the world by Fortune 500 companies such as Sprint and Dell and small startups who leverage the power and scalability of the Elastic Stack, without having to pay a fortune in licensing or professional services hours.

Getting ElasticSearch up and running is fairly straightforward, but fully understanding how to use the whole stack, from start to finish, is a rather daunting task. This course will focus on two major use cases with ElasticSearch. The first is leveraging the powerful full-text search engine ElasticSearch is built on, allowing developers to add blazingly fast search features to applications. The second is leveraging different components of the Elastic Stack to continuously monitor applications, infrastructure, or even customer transactions.

Throughout the course, students will go from a beginner to a master of Elastic Stack, via hands-on examples using real data.

Audience

The course is for developers and system administrators who want to begin storing data in a cost-effective manner and want to leverage the functionality of the Elastic Stack. People with job titles such as Software Developer, Systems or Solutions Architect, System Administrator, DevOps Engineer, and so on will also be particularly interested in this course. Additionally, managers and directors in technology organizations will be able to understand the concepts and discuss them knowledgeably without breaking the budget.
