The Logstash 7.12.0 release marks the latest stable version of the software, introducing several enhancements targeting Elastic Common Schema (ECS) compliance, ARM support, and JDK 15 compatibility. This release continues the journey towards achieving full ECS compliance across Logstash by introducing an ECS compatibility mode for plugins, which ensures that both explicitly and implicitly created fields align with ECS standards, and introduces a pipeline-level ECS compatibility option. Additionally, Logstash 7.12.0 graduates ARM/AARCH64 support for Linux to beta, accommodating the rising demand for ARM-based architectures, and extends compatibility to JDK 15. Users are encouraged to download the new version, explore its features, and provide feedback for further improvements.
