I'm happy to announce the availability of [Httpbeat 1.1.0](https://github.com/christiangalsterer/httpbeat/releases/tag/1.1.0).
[Httpbeat](https://github.com/christiangalsterer/httpbeat) is a [Beat](https://www.elastic.co/products/beats) which polls HTTP endpoints in a regular interval and sends the HTTP request and response as an event to a configured shipper, e.g. Elasticsearch and Logstash.
Example use cases are:
- Monitoring of [Apache Stats](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_status.html)
- Monitoring of Java application with [Jolokia](https://jolokia.org/)
- Monitoring of [Spring Boot Actuators](http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/htmlsingle/#production-ready)
Changes in version 1.1.0:
- Support to output the HTTP response directly in JSON format. This can be convenient if you want to send the document directly to Elasticsearch instead of sending first to Logstash and doing there filter and transformation into JSON.
More information can be found on [github](https://github.com/christiangalsterer/httpbeat).
For ideas, bug reports etc please create an issue on the github project page and/or create a pull request.
