Elastic Stack Release - 5.0.0-alpha3
Blog post from Elastic
The Elastic Stack 5.0.0-alpha3 release introduces several new features and improvements across its components, including Elasticsearch, Kibana, Logstash, Beats, and ES-Hadoop, though it remains in the alpha stage and is not yet suitable for production use. Key enhancements in Elasticsearch focus on reducing ambiguity through refactoring, boosting indexing performance by minimizing lock contention, and improving dynamic scripting speed with Painless scripting. Kibana sees numerous bug fixes, stability improvements, and new PDF reporting features in X-Pack, while Logstash introduces a plugin generator tool and a unified configuration file, logstash.yml, for easier management. Beats expands its capabilities with Metricbeat, which extends metrics collection beyond Topbeat’s scope to include various servers, and simplifies configuration files for user-friendliness. Additionally, ES-Hadoop upgrades its Storm support to version 1.0.x, and the Migration Helper tool is available to assist users migrating from version 2.3.x to the upcoming 5.0 release.
