Logstash
A server-side data processing pipeline that ingests, transforms, and ships logs and events from multiple sources.
What is Logstash?
Logstash is an open-source, server-side data processing pipeline that is part of the Elastic Stack. It ingests data from a wide variety of sources, transforms it in real-time, and then sends it to a 'stash' like Elasticsearch for storage and analysis. It solves the problem of collecting, parsing, and enriching log and event data from disparate systems into a centralized, usable format.
DevOps engineers, SREs, and developers who need to centralize and process log data, metrics, or other event streams from multiple applications and infrastructure components.
Developers choose Logstash for its powerful, plugin-based extensibility, seamless integration with the Elastic Stack, and its ability to handle high-volume data ingestion and transformation pipelines out of the box.
