Kibana

Logs based on ElasticSearch are available through the tool Kibana. Usage of Kibana is recommended where you want to look at logs for multiple pods and/or environments at once as the logs for any given environment includes all pod logs. Using Kibana can alleviate the requirement of monitoring pod logs individually as is necessary with the Kubernetes Logs. Kibana also allows time based filtering of logs.

The information you'll find within the Kibana logs is any information that has been logged to the standard output of each pod.

Setup

Follow Cloud Platform's documentation

Steps

hmpps-integration-api-dashboard is a direct link to the dashboard which the steps below lead you to.

  1. Click the hamburger button on the top left
  2. Go to Dashboard
  3. Search for 'hmpps-integration-api-dashboard'
  4. Select 'hmpps-integration-api-dashboard'

Example Use Case

You've made a request on the API but aren't sure which pod you've been directed to as there are a number running. Using Kibana will allow you to see the logs regardless of the pod they're running on.
