Heka is marked deprecated in Kolla during Newton cycle[0]. And Now we have a blueprint for this[1]. Two alternatives, fluentd[3] and Filebeat.
For Filebeat, it is just a replacement of logstash-forward[2]. It is not intent to replace the Logstash at all. > Filebeat is based on the Logstash Forwarder source code and replaces Logstash > Forwarder as the method to use for tailing log files and forwarding them to > Logstash. Fillebeat is a log transport tool rather than log processing too. I do not treat it as an alternative at all. To be honest, I'd like back to Logstash, and Logstash 5.x is released with high performance improvement[4]. > In our performance testing, we've seen consistent throughput increases > across multiple configurations. In some cases, we observed up to 75% > increase in events processed through Logstash. another benefit to using Logstash is the whole ELK stack is maintained by one community/company. It is well tested and easy to upgrade the whole stack at the same time. Using other tools may force us on certain elasticsearch release. So, I think we have to alternative tools. * Fluentd * Logstash IMO, we need to make the decision and at least prepare the migration solution now.
