Beats 6.5.0 marks a significant update in the Beats project, introducing various new features, improvements, and modules, many of which are in beta. Central management allows users to control Filebeat and Metricbeat configurations through Kibana, simplifying the management of extensive deployments. The release also debuts two new Beats: Functionbeat, designed to run serverless on AWS Lambda for log transfers, and Journalbeat, aimed at ingesting logs from journald on Linux systems. Additionally, the Infrastructure and Logs UIs provide enhanced visualization and navigation for Metricbeat and Filebeat data within Kibana. Heartbeat achieves general availability, bringing dynamic service monitoring capabilities, while the Suricata integration via a Filebeat module eases the collection of intrusion detection logs. Improvements across existing modules include Kafka support in Metricbeat and Filebeat, expanded metrics in Redis and Memcached modules, and new metricsets in MongoDB and PHP FPM modules.
