Overview

This project includes four files:

1. docker-compose.yaml: file that sets up four services: elasticsearch, kibana, logstash, and log-generator.
2. logstash.conf: for logstash that tells logstash how to handle the incoming data.
3. log-generator.sh: a shell script that generates random log messages in JSON format and sends them to the logstash service.
4. Dockerfile: a file used to build the log-generator service.
