The first link in this article is about switching from fluentbit to fluentd.

Me too. I have issue with fluenbit. Especially around their JSON processing. As in this issue: https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit/issues/1588

If you want a simple log forwarding, fluentbit is really good. But if you found yourself started to tweak fluentbit config, or write custom plugin in C and (recompile yourself) then it's time to move to fluentd.



I did a lot of the work to get sub-second timestamps working within the fluentd+ElasticSearch ecosystem and the thing is a tire fire.
