Hi, I have a GB of Apache access logs which I mine using awstats. But in order to plan capacity using queueing I need think times of requests. I don't want to add any new log format at this time and generate new logs. Is it possible to get response times from logs Apache ? This will be very helpful. I have LogStash,elasticSearch and Kibana. Do I need all three for this ? I don't have problems with plotting because I use 'R'. Thanks, Mohan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hey, logstash can be used as a log file aggregator for your apache logfiles, see more at [http://logstash.net/](http://logstash.net/) logstash uses elasticsearch to store its data in it (including the response times), so you need at least these two. I also highly recommend to take a look at kibana, as it might save you the hassle of using R and have nice near-realtime statistics, as Kibana as a wonderful dashboarding software, which can graph any data you like out of elasticsearch. if you have any particular question, do not hesitate to ask. Done with the into-the-weekend sales pitch for Kibana 🙂 --Alex On Fri, Sep 27, 2013 at 1:46 PM, Mohan Radhakrishnan \< [radhakrishnan.mohan@gmail.com](mailto:radhakrishnan.mohan@gmail.com)\> wrote: > Hi, > I have a GB of Apache access logs which I mine using awstats.
