Log management and analysis

Centralised logging on the Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana stack, so logs can be searched when it matters.

What this covers

Logs are only useful if they are in one place, retained long enough, and searchable by someone under pressure. Most estates fail at least one of those three, and the failure is discovered during an incident rather than before one.

We build centralised log collection and analysis on the Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana stack: shipping and parsing from across your estate, index and retention policy sized to what you genuinely need to keep, and Kibana dashboards and saved searches prepared in advance for the questions your team asks most often.

Logs and metrics together answer questions that neither answers alone. A latency spike on a dashboard becomes actionable when the log lines from that exact window are one click away.

What’s included

  • Centralised log collection and shipping
  • Logstash parsing and enrichment pipelines
  • Elasticsearch index and retention policy
  • Kibana dashboards and saved searches
  • Correlation between log data and metrics
  • Access control over who can read which logs

Platforms and channels

ElasticsearchLogstashKibana
Retention policy is worth deciding deliberately. Logs held longer than you need cost storage, and logs discarded sooner than you need cost you an investigation. Related: Monitoring and log management under Infrastructure, where the same stack is built as part of a wider platform engagement.
Available as a fully monitored service or implemented for your own team to run, and can be covered by a 24/7/365 SLA support and maintenance agreement covering alert response, threshold tuning, script maintenance and reporting.
