Anyone have ETL tool recommendations to share? Specifically looking for ones that handle the T part to transform data. I need to search through docs in Elastic (log events), perform some more advanced parsing & formatting and then put some data based on them back into Elastic or maybe another db like Postgres.

I've looked through the [Integrations](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/current/integrations.html) and didn't see much in this arena. Have found plenty of visualization-focused items like Kibi. Have looked at Talend a bit and that looks promising. What other ETL or BI tools have people found especially useful with ES or that have slick integrations to ES? If there's a curated list somewhere that I've missed I'd love to hear about it.

Thanks!

Logstash does have an Elasticsearch input plugin that would allow you to do this.
