Hi larmesto!

Is this solution a reliable instument for data input?
Like splunk dbconnect, for example.

Thanks in advance.

I have used this and it works really well so far in Splunk 7.1:
https://github.com/brunotm/elasticsplunk

it adds a new command ess that allows you to specify one or more nodes to search against. It provides results back using the statistics model (sorta like using db connect to query a db directly).

hello,

From what I have made :
I query elasticsearch via python scripts, then I route the results to the Python script.
And I deposit the script.py on the bin of my application. And there you can call it easily.

Kind regards
