Working with Filebeat Modules
editWorking with Filebeat Modules
editFilebeat comes packaged with pre-built modules that contain the configurations needed to collect, parse, enrich, and visualize data from various log file formats. Each Filebeat module consists of one or more filesets that contain ingest node pipelines, Elasticsearch templates, Filebeat input configurations, and Kibana dashboards.
You can use Filebeat modules with Logstash, but you need to do some extra setup. The simplest approach is to set up and use the ingest pipelines provided by Filebeat.
