If I have multiple inputs in my logstash and one output does it collects the logs from the inputs in serial way ( one by one ) or in parallel way ( all of them in the same time) ?  
Couldn't find an answer to it

The execution model is documented [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/execution-model.html). Inputs run in parallel.
