Hi All,

I am using Logstash to populate data from sql server to Elasticsearch. I have created multiple .conf files to populate data in ES. Created pipeline to run all these .conf files.

Question: do we need to create multiple pipelines if i have more .conf files to popuplate data to Elasticsearch? is there any advantage if i have multiple pipelines in Logstash.

Thanks,  
Sreedhar
