Summary

Logstash Lines announces updates and improvements in Logstash, highlighting the release of Logstash 6.3 and progress towards supporting NFS. The Logstash team has focused on enhancing the file input plugin by improving file rotation handling and remote filesystem file reading, verified by a user on NFS who experienced issues with ASCII NUL bytes. Key fixes include addressing broken classpath issues, enhancing file rotation scheme support, and optimizing remote file processing to prevent data loss. Additionally, updates in documentation and plugins, such as the logstash-input-file and logstash-output-graphite, address various technical issues and enhancements, including regression fixes, exception handling, and upgrading to Gradle 4.8.1, while also expanding plugin documentation and adding new input options like azure_event_hubs.
