Logstash to Elasticsearch

Image showing Logstash collecting data and sending to Elasticsearch

Ingest model: Logstash to collect data from sources not currently supported by Elastic Agent and sending the data to Elasticsearch. Note that the data transformation still happens within the Elasticsearch ingest pipeline.
Use when: Elastic Agent doesn’t currently support your data source.
Examples: AWS Kinesis, databases, Kafka
