at aptible - we prefer fluentd. one of our engs talks about the reasons why in the article above, but the tldr is fluentd is extensible like logstash, but far better performance

With logstash I had cases where it was taking more resources than the application that generated the damn logs.
These days i prefer fluentd, but in some cases I let my apps insert directly into ElasticSearch.
Good article. My teams frequently had problems with logstash. It's harder to do logging than you'd think.
