I didn't see an implementation of an SQL Server plugin for Logstash, and a quick StackOverflow reseult used a file as an intermediary. Does anyone know of a better solution? For example, if I could use the included sqlite plugin? Thanks.

If you do a search on the forums for JDBC or SQL you will find many other answers.
