Is it possible in Filebeat to have multiple log sources as inputs and indexed into different Elasticsearch indices?
Suppose I have apache access logs & mysql logs. How to enable filebeat modules for apache and mysql available in modules.d right from the filebeat.yml config file with the log paths specified?

When you enable the modules, they are automatically loaded. You don't need to configure anything extra in the `filebeat.yml` file.

Yes. You can use a process similar to this one from APM [Storing APM data in custom/specific indices](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/storing-apm-data-in-custom-specific-indices/246381)
