## Start up the PHP Guestbook with Redis
This tutorial builds on the [PHP Guestbook with Redis](/docs/tutorials/stateless-application/guestbook) tutorial. If you have the guestbook application running, then you can monitor that. If you do not have it running then follow the instructions to deploy the guestbook and do not perform the **Cleanup** steps. Come back to this page when you have the guestbook running.

## Install kube-state-metrics
Kubernetes [*kube-state-metrics*](https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics) is a simple service that listens to the Kubernetes API server and generates metrics about the state of the objects. Metricbeat reports these metrics. Add kube-state-metrics to the Kubernetes cluster that the guestbook is running in.
```shell
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics.git kube-state-metrics
kubectl apply -f kube-state-metrics/examples/standard
```
### Check to see if kube-state-metrics is running
```shell
kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system -l app.kubernetes.io/name=kube-state-metrics

## Create a Kubernetes Secret
A Kubernetes {{< glossary_tooltip text="Secret" term_id="secret" >}} is an object that contains a small amount of sensitive data such as a password, a token, or a key. Such information might otherwise be put in a Pod specification or in an image; putting it in a Secret object allows for more control over how it is used, and reduces the risk of accidental exposure.

Filebeat is deployed as a {{< glossary_tooltip text="DaemonSet" term_id="daemonset" >}}. Filebeat can autodiscover applications running in your Kubernetes cluster.

This configures Filebeat to apply the Filebeat module `redis` when a container is detected with a label `app` containing the string `redis`. The redis module has the ability to collect the `log` stream from the container by using the docker input type (reading the file on the Kubernetes node associated with the STDOUT stream from this Redis container). Additionally, the module has the ability to collect Redis `slowlog` entries by connecting to the proper pod host and port, which is provided in the container metadata.

kubectl delete service -l app=redis
kubectl delete deployment -l app=guestbook
