Hello,  
We have c# applications , running without docker.  
we want to write them to Elasticsearch.

I have managed to run logstash (right now as exe)  
and make it write to csv files.  
next, i will change it to write to elsastic search.

The question is: why should i think of adding filebeat into the pipe ?
