I'm really curious about this as well, because eliminating logstash to "boost performance" is something I am seriously considering. What logstash and elasticsearch versions? I wonder if it has anything to with the fact logstash (if the docs I've read are right) has an embedded elasticsearch client which is versioned along with es releases...maybe the client used by rsyslog just needs refactored? _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
