== Data Resiliency
|
|
|
|
As data flows through the event processing pipeline, Logstash may encounter
|
|
situations that prevent it from delivering events to the configured
|
|
output. For example, the data might contain unexpected data types, or
|
|
Logstash might terminate abnormally.
|
|
|
|
To guard against data loss and ensure that events flow through the
|
|
pipeline without interruption, Logstash provides the following data resiliency
|
|
features.
|
|
|
|
* <<persistent-queues>> protect against data loss by storing events in an
|
|
internal queue on disk.
|
|
|
|
* <<dead-letter-queues>> provide on-disk storage for events that Logstash is
|
|
unable to process. You can easily reprocess events in the dead letter queue by
|
|
using the `dead_letter_queue` input plugin.
|
|
|
|
//TODO: Make dead_letter_queue an active link after the plugin docs are published.
|
|
|
|
These resiliency features are disabled by default. To turn on these features,
|
|
you must explicitly enable them in the Logstash <<logstash-settings-file,settings file>>.
