Logstash kafka plugin

AMITH1284 · January 18, 2019, 2:54pm

When sending logs from kafka to ES, if ES is down and logstash fails to send to ES, will it continue to consume messages from kafka or does it stop consuming as it fails to send?

Thanks

logstash has internal queues. Once they are full it will stop consuming.

When the internal queue in logstash is full it will stop reading from kafka.
