1. Logstash is an ETL (Extract Transform and Load) tool. Used for complex use cases. You don't need it here. You can directly stream the CSV to Elasticsearch with filebeat and use [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.6/csv-processor.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.6/csv-processor.html) to transform the data.
