Hi,

logstash is basicalli a "translator" for Elastic Search, it's mostly used for parsing an unstructured data source, like a log from syslog and extract all the needed information to feed ElasticSearch with beefy Json.

I think that with plc4x it's a better approach to build the json directly an sent them to Elastic directly, it's pretty easy; achieving the plus of not dealing with an another machine for Logstash.

I think that dropping the support for Elastic is good because not so useful in our scenario.

Regards,
S.

Hi all

Right now, on Windows machines the build of the logstash plugin seems to work 
when run in IntelliJ, but fail when run on the commandline. This seems to be a 
known issue and probably wasn't detected yet as most PLC4X devs don't work on 
Windows and I just recently started to.

Given the Elastic folks recently changed their license to one that is 
definitely incompatible, if we update, I am not willing to invest time into 
this and would rather like to remove the logstash support alltogether.

What do you think?

Chris
