Elasticsearch is a distributed, RESTful search and analytics engine capable of solving a growing number of use cases. As the heart of the Elastic Stack, it centrally stores your data so you can discover the expected and uncover the unexpected. This image is not including x-pack but is using search-guard instead of shield for roles/users managment, which means you can deploy as many nodes as you want for free.

run the following command on your host:

sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

You can set it permanently by modifying vm.max_map_count setting in your /etc/sysctl.conf.

docker run -d -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -e ELASTIC_PWD=dockerrocks -e KIBANA_PWD=brucewayne  khezen/elasticsearch:latest
