Summary

Dockbeat is an open-source project developed by Ingensi, a unit of Cyres Group in France, to monitor Docker containers by collecting and indexing their statistics into Elasticsearch via the Beats platform. Designed to enhance big data solutions using tools like Hadoop and Elastic Stack, Dockbeat capitalizes on Docker's API to track real-time resource usage statistics such as CPU, memory, network, and disk IO. It integrates with Elastic Stack for efficient log management, allowing for visualization in Kibana dashboards, and supports outputs to Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kafka. Since its inception, Dockbeat has grown to version 1.0.0 and is available on GitHub, inviting community contributions for documentation, bug reports, and feature development.
