I am using a traditional ELK stack on AWS with the below Architecture: AZ1: 1x Logstash (ALB+ASG) AZ2: 1x Logstash AZ1: 3x Master Nodes AZ2: 2x Master Nodes AZ1: 2x Data Nodes AZ2: 2x Data Nodes AZ1: 1x Kibana (ALB+ASG) AZ2: 1x Kibana ALB: Application Load Balancer ASG: Autoscaling Groups Is the above combination recommended ? Should I be using a ALB or a network load balancer ? To send logs to Logstash should I use RSyslog(for linux) and or Beats( for Windows) ? or is this really not a mandatory requirement ? If not how will the logs be sent to Logstash ? What is a coordinating node ? in the above combination is a coordinating node required ? ---

Could anyone share some ELK architectures on ELK ? ---
