Connect with the Elastic Community

How the Elastic Stack helped a large public sector client reduce outages from 4 per day to 1 every few months, and in the process deploy a scalable automation platform. During this session we will talk about how a combination of Ansible, Azure DevOps, and the Elastic Stack was used to automatically collect and visualize hundreds of network physical defects and misconfigurations, and how the same Elastic Stack was used to build an automation platform telemetry harness to securely scale out.

Dive into a unique level of access in this session with Bluestone's Head of Technology, Jason Nack. Discover Dark Web relevancy for security, defense, and intelligence organizations and the fundamentals of leveraging open source information to support investigations and analysis.

High Performance Computing (HPC) systems generate massive amounts of data and logs. In addition, the retention requirements are only increasing to ensure data remains available for incident response, audits, and other business needs. Ingesting and making sense of all the data takes a correspondingly large amount of computing power and storage. With El Capitan, a 2 Exaflop computer arriving and being deployed at LLNL in 2023, we’ll have even larger processing needs in the future. Therefore over the past year, Livermore Computing at LLNL has been migrating our current logging infrastructure to Elasticsearch and Kibana in an effort to handle the increasing amount of data even faster than before. This talk will focus on the changes we’ve made, why we decided to go with Elastic, and address some of the bumps we’ve hit along the way.
