For the installation of ElasticSearch&Kibana we will use Docker-compose (it is more info here). It's better to check that the version of Docker-compose is updated ). It is and it's recommended that you create a folder and place the docker-compose.yaml file in it.

The command above starts the background service in the shell (it takes a few seconds to allow processing). We then check that the containers are running using

Finally, we can connect to the address http://<FIP>:<port>. In our case the address, which needs the VPN, is http://131.154.97.128:91. If we can see the Kibana dashboard, it means that the procedure carried out so far is correct (it may take a couple of minutes from startup to service activation). However, we are not yet able to view the logs generated by our cluster. In the next paragraph we will create a connection between the cluster and the newly instanced log collection service.
