(Note: we’ve also got a related blog post about monitoring the official Elasticsearch image on Docker that you might find useful)

Fresh from DevOps Days in Warsaw and delivered by Sematext engineer Rafal Kuć, “Running High Performance and Fault Tolerant Elasticsearch Clusters on Docker” is chock full of practical information that will no doubt answer many of the questions you might have about this process.
