imho you want to go the redis route when you need multiple indexers to read the same stream of data. my rsyslog collectors are also my logstash indexers, so no need for the intermediary layer.
or, when you can't get syslog data directly and need redis to distribute your data to logstash from anywhere. personally id use lumberjack for that though so its all encrypted.
