There may not be a lot of folks here who use Logstash with Splunk. I can't tell you much about the HTTP output. Splunk did recently announce improved support ingesting from Kafka (about time!), so perhaps you could go...

Of course many of us here would encourage you to just store the data in Elasticsearch instead of Splunk. 😉
