Ever since Elastic acquired Packetbeat in mid 2015, the beats community has grown at a pace. This momentum really began to accelerate when Elastic released libbeat, in late 2015, allowing the community to build it's own custom beats. As of writing there are well over 30 beats contributed from community alongside the 4 beats provided by Elastic themselves. An interesting trend became apparent as more of these beats began to appear.

The Metricbeat equivalent metricbeat.modules: #------------------------------- System Module -------------------------------- module: system metricsets: # CPU stats - cpu # System Load stats - load # Per filesystem stats - filesystem # Memory stats - memory # Network stats - network # Per process stats - process enabled: true period: 10s processes: ['.*']
