Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Amazing product for service logs
An excellent tool for displaying, analyzing and managing alerts over logs.
Great tool
Moreover, searching logs becomes very easy for us using logz.io, which otherwise is a hassle
Support for Metrics from Windows Containers in AKS
Previous to this, they made it possible to surface logs from Windows containers too by shipping logs from the Windows Nodes negating the need for sidecars, logging agents or pushing directly from your apps.
If you want your ELK stack as a managed service (reducing the cost of in-house dedicated infra as well as removing the maintenance overhead, freeing up Engineers' time to focus on your core business) with a level of support which will simply blow your mind, then reach out to Logz.io.
