I am getting - `Exiting: Failed to start crawler: starting input failed: error while initializing input: Error creating input. No such input type exist: 'aws-s3'` What is the difference between Filebeat and Filebeat-OSS? What is X-pack? How can I used features included in X-pack? ---

OSS is the fully open source version and doesn't include the licensed features to include AWS input. To use those, download the fully featured version. It's free just includes features under a a different license. ---
