I'd like to leverage Filebeat so it'd fetch our o365\azure\aws logs using the various [modules](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/filebeat-module-o365.html).  
I'd like to understand how would it handle with very high volumes?  
Any way to maintain a cluster of Filebeat clusters?  
Did anyone manage to handle such a situation where one Filebeat per data type (o365\gsuite\azure audit log) wasn't enough?

Seems like in [S3 sqs specifically](https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/13457) horizontal scaling is feasible, but what about the others?
