Guidance on Configuring an ELK Stack using seperate hosts for Logstash, Elastic (Master, Data, Ingest) and Kibana

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I'm looking to confiugre an ELK stack using the following seperated VM's for cost and scaling in a CSP.

Lselk.gtld. (Logstash)

Melk.gtld. (Master)

Ielk.gtld. (Ingest)

Delk.gtld (hot_data)

Wdelk.gtld (warm_data)

Kelk.gtld (kibana for ELK)

I'm hoping to publish a How-To on how to do this. However there's very little in the way of going about this beyond installing ELK on every node. My primary considerations are the Scaling of the Hot_Data for Elastic and Warm_Data nodes as well as making sure the Kibana is geared for heavy use.

Welcome to our community! :smiley:

Node discovery | Elasticsearch Guide [8.11] | Elastic goes into the aspects of clustering your nodes.

That's very much an It Depends answer.

I would encourage you to check out some of the other sizing topics that have been asked and see if they provide some more information for you to look at.
