Zero To Logs - Getting Graylog Up and Running in Under an Hour Webinar
Getting Graylog up and running does not have to take hours of configuration work. In this session, Graylog Director of Technical Marketing Jeff Darrington walks through a complete installation using Docker Compose, taking you from a blank environment to a fully functioning log management platform with live data ingestion in under an hour. You will learn how to set up Graylog with Docker, understand the compatibility requirements across Graylog, MongoDB, and OpenSearch or Graylog Data Node, and configure the preflight UI to secure your instance. From there, Jeff ingests a real syslog source, sets up a dedicated stream and index using the input wizard, and builds a custom pipeline rule to route logs based on source IP. The session wraps up with practical search techniques you can use to explore and analyze your own log data. Whether you are testing Graylog for the first time or setting up a lab environment, this walkthrough covers everything you need to get from zero to logs.
