Right, I think I misread that. However, that’s what the curation idea is for :) — Matt Sicker > On Dec 1, 2023, at 18:47, Gary Gregory wrote: > > Of course RE Volkan, my first sentence must have been poorly written. I > meant to say that I know who Volkan is and that he is great, but, that's > n

Re: Logstash and Filebeat guaranteed delivery

Volkan, Notice that neither of the links you have provided use the term “guaranteed delivery”. That is because that is not really what they are providing. In addition, notice that Logstash says "Input plugins that do not use a request-response protocol cannot be protected from data loss”, and

Logstash and Filebeat guaranteed delivery

Ralph, could you elaborate on your response, please? AFAIK, Logstash and Filebeat provide guaranteed delivery, if configured correctly. As a matter of fact they have docs (here and here
