I am looking to securely send data from my dynamic workflow tool Apache NiFi to Logstash. What are effective methods of accomplishing this?

Depending on what you put into "securely" perhaps shipping the text logs with Filebeat and enabling TLS peer verification would suffice?
Is there a way to go from NiFi directly to Logstash without dropping a file? @magnusbaeck
There's probably a way but I don't know how NiFi's logging can be configured.
I don't recommend it though. What happens if Logstash is down or there are network connectivity problems? Will the application hang? Will it drop log entries?
