Functionbeat

Serverless shipper for cloud data

Deploy as a function in your cloud provider’s Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform to collect, ship, and monitor data from your cloud services.

One command to deploy

Serverless architectures let you deploy code, without needing to spin up and manage extra underlying software and hardware. Functionbeat brings that same simplicity to monitoring your cloud infrastructure. Deploy it as a function in your serverless framework, like AWS Lambda, to collect data from your cloud services — and bring them to the Elastic Stack for centralized analytics.

Monitor your cloud deployments

Deploy Functionbeat as a serverless shipper to directly pipe data streams from AWS CloudWatch Logs to the Elastic Stack for unified monitoring goodness. Keep a close eye on the logs for all of the applications and systems in your deployment.

Serverless, event-driven processing

Use Functionbeat to tap into your AWS Kinesis or SQS queues to conduct a myriad of event-driven processing workflows, all in serverless style. Whether its logs, metrics, or any other data, stream your events into the Elastic Stack for real-time search and analytics.

Ship to Elasticsearch. Visualize in Kibana.

Functionbeat is part of the Elastic Stack, meaning it works seamlessly with Elasticsearch and Kibana. Whether you want to transform or enrich your metrics with Ingest Node, fiddle with some analytics in Elasticsearch, or build and share dashboards in Kibana, Functionbeat makes it easy to ship your data to where it matters most.
