[gentoo-user] aggregate logs into Elasticsearch

[Stefan G. Weichinger]

I am trying my first steps to collect and aggregate logs into a
elasticsearch/kibana combo.

I have them in a docker-compose stack and want to collect nginx and
postfix logs for a start.

So far I am confused by stuff like filebeat, logstash, fluentd ... brrr

Could someone explain or even share some config files? How to set that
up without dozens of packages installed etc (fluentd pulls a lot of
packages, for example).

My goal:

collect logs of postfix, nginx into the docker-containers running ES,
Kibana .. and learn my way from there.

thanks, Stefan
