Logstash 7.6.0 has been released, featuring the new JDBC Integration Plugin that combines input/output/filter plugins for JDBC into one cohesive unit, thereby streamlining plugin management and ensuring consistent configurations. The release also introduces a unified deprecation logging system, enabling users to track features that may become obsolete in upcoming major upgrades. Moreover, monitoring Logstash performance with Elastic Cloud has been simplified, allowing users to easily configure monitoring settings using the Cluster ID from the Elastic Cloud Admin Console. Users are encouraged to download the new version, engage with the community on social media or forums, and report any issues on GitHub.
