What's included

  • OpenSearch 3.0 engine + OpenSearch Dashboards
  • Security plugin enabled with per-VM generated credentials
  • REST API compatible with common log shippers
  • Ubuntu 24.04 LTS with automatic security updates
  • Trusted Launch: Secure Boot + vTPM supported
  • JVM heap auto-sized to VM memory at first boot

Quick start

  1. Open OpenSearch Dashboards at http://<VM-IP>:5601/.
  2. Sign in as `admin` with the generated password (see command below), then change it immediately.
  3. Create an index pattern and start ingesting via the REST API on port 9200 (Beats/Logstash/Data Prepper compatible).

Get your admin password (one time)

ssh <your-username>@<VM-IP>
sudo cat /var/lib/opensearch/admin-password

Every image ships without any shared or default password — a unique admin credential is generated for your VM on first boot. Change it after first sign-in.

Common use cases

  • Centralized log analytics
  • Application and site search
  • Observability trace/metric exploration
  • SIEM data lake foundation
