# Collecting Docker Log Files with Fluentd and Elasticsearch This directory contains the source files needed to make a Docker image that collects Docker container log files using [Fluentd](http://www.fluentd.org/) and sends them to an instance of [Elasticsearch](http://www.elasticsearch.org/). This image is designed to be used as part of the [Kubernetes](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes) cluster bring up process. The image resides at DockerHub under the name [kubernetes/fluentd-elasticsearch](https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/kubernetes/fluentd-elasticsearch/).
