Summary

Elastic Logs 7.2.0, a new release available on the Elasticsearch Service or as part of the Elastic Stack, introduces enhanced features for infrastructure and application log management. Key updates include support for structured logs with field pinning, enabling users to add custom columns in the log viewer, and a quick filter feature accessible directly from the log detail flyout. The release also expands Kubernetes and container monitoring capabilities with the addition of the NATS module, which captures and visualizes logs from the NATS messaging system, and the CoreDNS module, which supports various CoreDNS deployments and provides detailed query information. Furthermore, Filebeat's container input now supports Open Container Initiative-based Kubernetes CRI-O logs, allowing users to specify log formats, and the application can be accessed by creating or upgrading clusters on Elastic Cloud or through the default Elastic Stack distribution.
