Log Ingestor and Query Interface

Log Ingestor

A microservice that can handle multiple log events at the same time. It uses Kafka for message queuing and MongoDB for storing log data. This microservice can easily scale within Kubernetes by deploy multiple Kafka producer and Kafka consumer to different worker nodes in k8s cluster. And the Kafka cluster itself can be scaled by increasing the kafka brokers and the number of replication of the topic (See the architecture for more details).

Query Interface

A simple web interface that allows filtering log events.

Architecture

Usage

1. Run docker compose file

docker-compose up -d

2. Verify kafka and zookeeper

nc -zv localhost 9092
nc -zv localhost 2181

3. Ingest log into system

The script will generate multiple log requests and send those requests to kafka producer concurrently. The number of request is configurable, the current number of concurrent request is 1000

go run scripts/main.go

4. Double check the data in MongoDB with MongoDB Compass or MongoDB Shell (Optional)

MongoDB Compass

MongoDB Shell

use log_ingestor
db.logs.count()

5. Search for logs
