Excellente formation ! Le contenu est riche et la pédagogie est particulièrement efficace. Le formateur sait rendre des sujets parfois complexes simples à comprendre.

Un peu rapide sur certains sujets ne permettant pas suffisamment d’approfondir pour des installations un peu plus proche de la production (partie administration/installation). Le sujet est très dense, ca serait top de proposer la même formation sur 5 jours afin de permettre de rentrer vraiment dans les détails. Aborder un peu plus les possibilités de logstash serait également un très gros plus (filtre grok, mutate, type possible de données, ...).

Le contenu est très complet.On voit énormément de chose et certains TP sont trop long.3 jours ne sont pas suffisant pour tout couvrir.
