I am using Elk to display status of jobs. I am connecting to oracle and displaying in kibana. For the first time I am doing select \* and indexing to ES. Now I want job status to change as they change in backend. Also the new jobs added with time should be displayed. How to handle that in logstash.conf? I was thinking to select \* to index and then delete all previously indexed data from Es before doing select \* new updated data. Is there any other way to do that? This way doesn't seem to be efficient.

Is there a column in the database that gets updated with a sequence or timestamp when a row is updated? If so, search the discussions here for sql\_last\_value to get some hints.

@Badger the only columns related to time are start time and end time of the jobs
