6 Reasons Your Data Lake Isn't Working Out

Since the data lake concept emerged more than a decade ago, data lakes have been pitched as the solution to many of the woes surrounding traditional data management solutions, like databases and data warehouses. Data lakes, we have been told, are more scalable, better able to accommodate widely varying types of data, cheaper to build and so on. Much of that is true, at least theoretically.

SIEM Logging for Enterprise Security Operations and Threat Hunting

Today's enterprise networks are diverse and complex. Rather than the simple network perimeter of old, bad actors can attack through multiple entry points, including cloud-based applications. Not to mention, these networks generate massive amounts of transactional data. Because enterprise networks have become larger, they're more difficult to secure and manage. As a result, IT operations teams and security analysts seek better ways to deal with the massive influx of information to improve security and observability.

OpenSearch vs. Elasticsearch: Which is Better?

Following its release under the open-source Apache 2.0 license in 2010, Elasticsearch rose to prominence as the world’s most popular enterprise search engine. Elasticsearch is frequently deployed alongside Logstash and Kibana, a combination known as the ELK stack, to enable log analytics use cases that include application observability, security log analysis, and understanding user behavior.

The Evolution of Search: How Multi-Modal LLMs Transcend Vector Databases

As we venture deeper into the data-driven era, the traditional systems we have employed to store, search, and analyze data are being challenged by revolutionary advancements in Artificial Intelligence. One such groundbreaking development is the notable advent of Large Language Models (LLMs), specifically those with Multi-Mod[a]l abilities (e.g., Image & Audio).

Can You Use the ELK Stack as a SIEM? A Fresh Take

A SIEM system (Security Information and Event Management) is often used by security operations centers (SOCs) for real-time detection of suspicious activity and security events. While some teams choose to adopt a purpose-built SIEM, others rely on the same DevOps tools they are already using for tasks like troubleshooting and operational log data analysis.

Cloud Imperium Games moves ELK stack with ChaosSearch.

Cloud Imperium Games (CIG) is a prominent video game development company known for its ambitious project, Star Citizen, which aims to be an open-world, massively multiplayer online space simulation game. As a result of the game's popularity, all the metrics, events, and logs, generated to track every single action during gameplay, also experienced explosive growth in terms of volume and also in diversity (a consequence of the dynamic and fast-paced development environment).
