Log management plays an important role in helping to debug Kubernetes clusters, improve their efficiency, and monitor them for any suspicious activity. Kubernetes is an open-source cluster management software designed for the deployment, scaling, and operations of containerized applications.
Too often serverless is equated with just AWS Lambda. Yes, it’s true: Amazon Web Services (AWS) helped to pioneer what is commonly referred to as serverless today with AWS Lambda, which was first announced back in 2015.

Serverless is sometimes (narrowly) defined as just being about functions-as-a-service, but that’s a very limited viewpoint.
Whether we’re creating or managing on the fly with microservices, serverless compute, or containerization and APIs, digital rules everything around us. From IT operations, service delivery and asset management to even the fundamental makeup of our company’s core products and services, it’s all gone—or going—to the cloud.

Services are the backbone of our systems. Whether they’re functional microservices or logical components of a traditional application, they are the pieces that make up our businesses. We can’t do the computer thing without services. But who’s responsible for owning a service in your company or organization? The cast of characters involved in the lifecycle of a service is more than just software engineers.
In this previous article we learned to create our own Docker images to test and distribute our applications regardless of their dependencies. As we know, Docker is a wonderful tool for collaborative programming work, allowing to work in a virtually identical environment regardless of the operating system you are in.
This blog post is one in an occasional series about how we at Elastic embrace our own technology. The Elastic InfoSec team is responsible for securing Elastic and responding to threats. We use our products everywhere we can — and for more than just logs. By harnessing the power and breadth of capabilities of the Elastic Stack, we are working on tracking risk and performance metrics, threat intelligence, our control framework, and control conformance information within Elastic.
