Want to do some runtime logic building with Kibana, is that possible?

Elastic Stack Kibana

Hi Folks,

1.Let's say there are three services which are running & writing the logs.Now our client wants to check whether these three services are running or in shutdown state through kibana dashboards.

Is that possible through kibana dashboards? Or using it in elastic search?

I am confused with the strange requirement for ELK suite.

Help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Kunal

Using the top hits aggregation, you could get the most recent log for each service and display it on the dashboard. So while this wouldn't necessarily tell you if the service were up, at least you could know when the last log was created.
