I have a couple of Apache Server logs that I want to parse into Kibana for visualisation. Right now, I have tried setting up Elasticsearch + Kibana + Filebeat to ingest these server logs. However, Filebeat seems to be taking up quite a lot of CPU usage.
These logs are static, ie old logs that I collected. Therefore, I do not need Filebeat active monitoring capabilities. In this case, are there any other alternative methods for me to import my Apache Server logs into Kibana only once?
Also, as a side note, what are the differences between filebeat and logstash? I read that logstash is able to parse more info out of the logs such as geo location. However, while trying out my method, it seems that filebeat's apache module is capable of doing so as well.
