I'm working with Filebeat on a system that collects log events from files on a windows endpoint and sends them directly to elastic
while using Filebeat I have noticed it has a big delay of a few seconds until the data gets sent to elastic, as well as every time the prospector sends a set of events , the last document gets indexed with a additional delay
I'm working on a monitoring system that requires the logs to be indexed as fast as possible (near real-time)
can someone please help me

Can you share some more things?
- Filebeat config
- Filebeat version
- Architecture you are using
