I also +1 to drop those components, including ES and Kibana.
A few month ago I added the patches for log4j to them, it was a little bit 
difficult to patch because those products in Bigtop were far from the latest 
versions. And as Masatake mentions currently ELK are not Apache 2 license.
I think it is preferable to drop them, or to replace them to OpenSearch or 
another projects which are maintained in Apache 2 license.

Subject: Re: Remove Logstash from Bigtop stack
I'm +1 to drop Logstash (and Elasticsearch and Kibana as well).
We can not upgrade them to upstream version due to incompatible license.
rpm/deb packages are officially provided on their own.

Thanks,
