How are you different than AWS-hosted Elasticsearch?

AWS-hosted Elasticsearch is a good way to set up Elasticsearch quickly. But building a log management system based on ELK requires much more than Elasticsearch alone. Here is a short list of items that customers need to cover when building their own ELK stacks:

1. Queuing systems

2. Logstash

3. Scalability for Elasticsearch

4. High availability

5. Data curation (the deletion of old indices)

6. Conflicting-mapping management

7. Security

8. Multi-user and role-based user access

9. The ability to create dashboards and visualizations

10. Log parsing

11. Log shipping
