In this tutorial we will go over steps on how to install and configure Elasticsearch
for your development and production environment.
What is ElasticSearch?
One of the best search and analytics engine out there in the world. Elasticsearch is a distributed, JSON-based engine designed for horizontal scalability
, maximum reliability
, and easy management.
Elastic search centrally stores your data so you can discover the expected and uncover the unexpected. You could send all your logs from to ElasticSearch via Filebeat and visualize metrics instantly.

Step-1) Install Elasticsearch
Here are the few simple commands to install Elasticsearch on your Linux/Ubuntu OS.
bash-3.2$ wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.7.0.tar.gz bash-3.2$ wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.7.0.tar.gz.sha512 bash-3.2$ shasum -a 512 -c elasticsearch-6.7.0.tar.gz.sha512 bash-3.2$ tar -xzf elasticsearch-6.7.0.tar.gz bash-3.2$ cd elasticsearch-6.7.0/
And that’s it. Here are installation logs.

Step-2) Start Elasticsearch Process
You need to make sure JAVA_HOME is setup correctly.
crunch@localhost:/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin$ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/ crunch@localhost:/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin$ echo $JAVA_HOME /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/
Start ElasticSearch process command:
./bin/elasticsearch
Make sure, you need to start Elastic Search using normal user
. ElasticSearch won’t start as a root user
and you will see below error if you try to run it as a root user.
java.lang.RuntimeException: can not run elasticsearch as root
Follow this tutorial on how to add non-root user and login.
