[ Kube 34 Discussion 1 ] Customizing EFK Deployment in Kubernetes using Rancher

In this video, I will show you how to customize the EFK deployment in the Kubernetes cluster. I will be using Rancher to manage my local Kubernetes cluster and deploy EFK stack from Helm repository.

This is a follow up video to the below video

Thanks for this video. this one was so special to me. Most waited one. I have been trying for this for a long time. Now i got the solution for it. Expecting a lots of videos on kubernetes. Its very interesting and challenging to learn k8s. This was a wonderful video series on k8s. Once again Thanks for it.

Hi Venkat, I have a kubernetes setup configured with EFK by using helm charts to monitor application logs. But one of the application is hosted on outside of cluster on a VM with windows OS. Could you please tell me whether it possible to forward the logs of windows VM to EFK which is configured in Kubernetes cluster.

Hi venkat,

Logging is fine; It's working as expected; If you get a time could you please upload the video for Adding APM in Kibana; I believe it would be helpful to troubleshoot the web-application

This has been informative, Venkat. I still have a doubt and got stuck.

I had some issues deploying this configuration due to memory and CPU limitations. I had to manually go to each deployment and statefulset to remove the limits and requests on resources to get this working. Is there any way to customize the resource requests and limits of the resources being deployed? I couldn't find resource requests and limit values in the editable YAML file.

Yet another great video with really straight forward explanations. I would like to deploy EFK in rancher to collect logs from computers on my network. how would you achieve that? Would it be better to use ELK with Rabbitmq instead? I want to avoid the complexity of adding a message queuing broker. Thanks.
