Hi,
Is there a plan to use Heartbeat to monitor filebeat and metricbeat? I currently have 1,000+ servers running filebeat and metricbeat now and then the service stops. Currently I have powershell checking these services but is it possible to have some dashboard from heartbeat that can monitor the health of all beats?
Thanks
Trevor

There is a plan to have central monitoring for Beats. [https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/3422](https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/3422)
