Fluentd with Kafka : (2/2) Steps to run Fluentd and Kafka
In the previous post, we discussed key use cases and approach regarding Fluentd and Kafka. Now, we will be reviewing the step-by-step instruction of how to configure Fluentd and Kafka with some security features.
Fluentd with Kafka (1/2) Use cases
In enterprise, processing streaming data in real time sometimes gets critical. A good example is “SecOps“. If you are an operator of SecOps, you need to capture the events which may cause security incidents in order to take actions, such as blocking suspicious access by changing security configuration, once you get event triggers. “Event-driven” system addresses this by getting those data in real time basis and responding quickly to the events happening.
SecOps with Fluentd
The ultimate goal of SecOps is to detect the suspicious event immediately and prevent incidents. In order to achieve the goal, you need to analyze every single event that happens in the system. With that being said, collecting information plays a crucial role for the successful SecOps since a large amount of information helps you get better analysis results. However, one of the challenges around this operation is to establish the data pipeline to collect and process information in more apps and infrastructures distributed can easily get complex.
