I'd also like to give a shoutout to OpenSearch (and probably also ElasticSearch) for being probably the best log-search application while *also* the hardest to stand up (by a _huge_ margin), *and* the most brittle. It _really_ doesn't like running in Docker Swarm 🤔

Could be related to running the swarm nodes on different VLANs, so going to nuke it all and try again now that's fixed. If it still struggles to work, then I guess it's back to grep for searching logs...

@ipsi Sigh, I really didn’t want to hear that. I haven’t touched ELK in a decade, and everything I’ve used and tried so far has not been as good, but I really don’t want to spin up a cluster.

@alpha Yeah, it's incredibly frustrating. ELK/OS is far too heavy for what I need, but at the same time none of the lighter-weight options provide the UI/UX that I want. At this point, I'm half-tempted to build my own UI on top of Parseable.

@ipsi I’ve just settled on Loki for now since I’m running Grafana anyway 🤷
