Is it possible to monitor the below services using ELK Stack.?? ``` 1. Web Services 2. Windows Services 3. Scheduled Tasks ``` This will need to tell the service **up** or **down**. Is it provide any **Real time alerts(email alert)** with Health Monitoring ?? ---

It all depends on how the data gets into Elasticsearch. Logstash has some input plugins that may help. Watcher could help notifying about alerts. ---

If you can get data about the state of these services into ES then yes, you can monitor them. How you do that is really up to you, I am not aware of anything that can do this on Windows, but then my knowledge there is limited. ---

Have you tried [evntwin+evntcmd](http://www.opennms.org/wiki/Windows_Event_Log_Traps)? This pair of tools enables you to create mappings between your windows events and snmp traps. You are even capable to set it to only send traps when a repeated number of events have occured in predetermined period of time. ---
