Elasticsearch 7.14 and Opensearch 1.0 Are Available and Work Fine With Syslog-ng
One of the most popular destinations in syslog-ng is Elasticsearch. Due to the license change of the Elastic stack, some people changed quickly to Grafana/Loki and other technologies. However, most syslog-ng users decided to wait and see. Version 1.0.0 of OpenSearch, a fork of the Elastic code base from before the license change is now available. Elastic also published a new release last week.
For this blog, I tested the latest and greatest from both product lines and I’m sharing my experiences. For the impatient: both work perfectly well.
