What is a Logstash Pipeline?
A Logstash pipeline consists of three main stages: Inputs, Filters, and Outputs.
- Inputs: Where data is ingested from various sources.
- Filters: Where data is processed and transformed.
- Outputs: Where the processed data is sent, such as Elasticsearch, files, or other services.
Each stage is defined in a configuration file, which Logstash reads to set up the pipeline.
Configuring Logstash Pipeline for Data Processing
Logstash, a key component of the Elastic Stack, is designed to collect, transform, and send data from multiple sources to various destinations. Configuring a Logstash pipeline is essential for effective data processing, ensuring that data flows smoothly from inputs to outputs while undergoing necessary transformations along the way.
This article will guide you through the process of configuring a Logstash pipeline, providing detailed examples and outputs to help you get started.
