So at job I was using logstash on bro and reading each file, parsing and
enhancing the data then sending to elasticsearch. But then that was talking
too many resources from bro, do not I'm using filebeat to send each log to
a logstash server which parses, enhances and sends to elasticsearch.

At home I'm using syslog-ng to send bro logs to logstash

The suggestion to use rabbitmq is good as well.
