>Yeah so has anyone actually tried to get ElasticSearch up and running lately?
Actually, yes. I just finished doing our migration from ELK 1.7 to 6.1.3.
We're using installs direct on VMs (rather than docker), and for that we push the configuration/install using Ansible.
Their Ansible role[1] works reasonably well for installing Elastic.
The Kibana and Logstash configurations were done using regular RPM install from the repo.
