Operations analytics

- [Instructor] Let us now apply our learnings in the course…for a few use cases.…In these use cases, we strive to choose…the best database options for the requirement.…In real-life cases though, you might choose…fewer number of database types in a given architecture…for manageability reasons.…Our first use case is network analytics.…We will sketch the architecture for network analytics first.…Then for the database components in the architecture,…we will work on choosing the right database…that fits the requirements.…

Software networks contain a number of virtual machines…where software components run.…They produce log files that log various events happening…in these components, including errors and warnings.…These log files need to be accumulated and analyzed…to provide insights and predictions for network management.…First, we need a data pipeline that would acquire log files…from these virtual machines…and push them into a central repository…through a queue like Kafka or MSMQ.…

The queue then dumps all the log files received…
