elasticsearchDecoupling Logstash Workloads with Pipeline-to-Pipeline Communication
Stop letting slow filters throttle your data ingestion. Learn how to use Logstash's distributer pattern to isolate CPU-heavy workloads into modular pipelines.
Logstash Persistent Queues: Surviving Downstream Outages Without Data Loss
Logstash persistent queues write events to disk before processing, absorbing traffic spikes and surviving downstream outages without data loss. Learn configuration, verification, and the trade-offs of disk-backed buffering.
Preventing Data Loss with the Logstash Dead Letter Queue
Stop losing data to malformed events. Learn how to configure and manage the Logstash Dead Letter Queue (DLQ) to capture, inspect, and replay failed events.
Stata Frames as In-Memory Workspaces for Safer Data Pipelines
Use Stata frames as named in-memory workspaces to isolate raw, cleaned and analysis data. Move results explicitly with frame put and frame get instead of relying on nested preserve/restore or disk tempfiles.
stataDiagnosing Logstash Pipelines That Stall With Rising Persistent Queue Depth
Logstash appears alive but stops emitting events while the persistent queue grows. This guide walks through ordered checks, root causes, and targeted fixes for stalled pipelines.
Splunk Universal Forwarder to Heavy Forwarder Pipeline Architecture: Design, Trust Boundaries, and Operational Guardrails
Architecture note on the smallest viable Splunk pipeline: Universal Forwarders → load-balanced Heavy Forwarder cluster → Indexers. Covers trust boundaries at the HF layer, persistent queuing configs, blocked-queue monitoring, failure-mode mitigations, and when to graduate to Indexer Clustering.
