Streams: One pipeline for every signal

Elastic

Streams is the unified data pipeline you've always wanted, designed to simplify bringing data into Elastic. Not just logs — metrics, traces, and every other signal, ingested in a schema-agnostic model that replaces the fragmented sprawl of Beats, Logstash, and Agent. We'll introduce the five foundational concepts — Source, Stream, Pipeline, Route, and Destination — that give you one mental model across edge and cloud. See the new visual topology view in Kibana: your entire data flow, end to end, in one map. Then we'll go under the hood into the managed-first processing engine that runs outside Elasticsearch to cut cost and boost performance.
