Ask HN: Ship logs to a central Elasticsearch from many remote locations

[ivanilves]

hi,

I need to ship logs to a single central Elasticsearch over the internet, from a bunch of different locations, in some of them connection can be unstable. I plan to use filebeat installed in every location with reasonably large queue configured, so any connection glitches would not stop logs from eventually being shipped to Elastic.

A question - had you ever worked with scenario like this? Do you know anything better that just putting filebeat with large queue in every remote location? Any thoughts/ideas?

Any feedback/suggestion is very welcome.

Thank U!!!
