-# DRAFT docker-elk
+# ELK Stack
 
-I decided against using this role for security reasons. I recommend to use another tool if you don't want to pay for keeping your logs save and if you don't want to depend on external servers. 
+## Warning
+For security reasons, this role is not recommended. If you prefer to keep your logs safe without relying on external servers, consider using an alternative tool.

+- **Service Management:** Handles service restarts and updates through Ansible handlers.
+
+## Purpose
+The ELK Stack is primarily used for:
+- **Centralized Log Management:** Consolidating logs from various systems into one location.
+- **Real-Time Troubleshooting:** Quickly diagnosing issues through live log analysis.
+- **Performance Monitoring:** Tracking system performance and identifying anomalies.
+- **Security Analysis:** Detecting and investigating security incidents based on log data.
+
+## Features
+- **Centralized Log Management:** Collects and aggregates logs from disparate systems.
+- **Real-Time Analysis:** Leverages Elasticsearch for fast data search and analytics.
+- **Flexible Data Pipelines:** Processes and transforms log data with Logstash.
+- **Interactive Visualization:** Creates dashboards and visual reports with Kibana.
+- **Scalable & Extensible:** Easily integrates additional tools and custom configurations via templates.
