I’ve been experimenting with using the Elastic Stack to monitor a small video editing workflow and wanted to ask if anyone here has done something similar.

The idea is to collect logs and system metrics from editing/render machines, then build Kibana dashboards showing export duration, failed uploads, storage usage, and sudden GPU/CPU spikes during rendering sessions.

While testing CapCut workflows, I even noticed that some upload failures happen right after I try to [download this](https://cepcutapk.com/) project export or click here inside the upload screen to retry cloud sync.

Has anyone tried correlating CapCut upload/export behavior with Elastic dashboards to spot patterns in performance drops? Also, would you recommend Elastic Agent alone or pairing it with Logstash for deeper pipeline tracking?
