Hi all,
I am looking to log user's search details like queries, date and time. I have gone through few links that says this can be achieved through having a dedicated monitoring cluster and has something to do with beats and marvel along with kibana and Elasticsearch.
Few older documents suggest marvel where as newer ones suggest metricbeats. I quite didn't understand the architecture to be developed to achieve my goal.
Could you please provide a link or suggest the architecture to store the search details.
I am currently using Elasticsearch version 6.4.0 and kibana version 6.4.0. Please suggest accordingly.
Thanks
