Data Pipelines for Real-Time Monitoring with Kafka and ELK Stack

Real-time monitoring and logging are important for maintaining system reliability and gaining insights into application performance. Organizations rely on efficient data pipelines to process, analyze, and visualize their data streams in real time. Apache Kafka and the ELK stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) are two tools that, when combined, provide a robust solution for building scalable, high-throughput pipelines for real-time monitoring and logging.
