Look at the [multiple pipeline](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/multiple-pipelines.html#multiple-pipelines) feature.
We mostly configure each pipeline to listen on a different port, but there are many options explained [here.](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/pipeline-to-pipeline.html#architectural-patterns)
