There is no best way. Are you planning to have different filters for all the inputs?

Managing multiple conf files does tend to be a little tedious, down the line.

Why not have all the jdbc inputs in one file?

Not really sure what example you need. But, here is a real-life conf directory that I was using a while back. I created multiple conf files for various data sources and added tags to segregate conditionals.
