Hi!

Can someone please tell me what is the status of this beat? Will it make it into v.5? Because I currently don't see it in 5.0 branch on github.... Is there an alpha version of this beat somewhere?

Also there used to be a set of [demo beats dashboards](https://github.com/elastic/beats-dashboards) that now says  
it is deprecated and moved to [main beats repo](https://github.com/elastic/beats) but i can find no dashboards there.

I am in fact looking for a topbeat+dashboard setup that actually works, like the one you show in the intro video on topbeat page.

Topbeat 1.X is available for [download](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/beats/topbeat). There will not be a Topbeat in 5.x because all of the functionality has been migrated to Metricbeat. For me details see this blog post:

> **[Beats 5.0.0-alpha3 released](https://www.elastic.co/blog/beats-5-0-0-alpha3-released)**

It's in the 1.x branches. [GitHub - elastic/beats at 1.3](https://github.com/elastic/beats/tree/1.3)

Brilliant! Thank you, Andrew - I will give metric beat a try.

Cheers!
