Neither of which is normally used for logging. I am glad there are some alternatives to ELK. Elasticsearch is great, but it's not as great when you have to ingest terabytes of logs daily. You can do it, but at a very large resource cost (both computing and human). Managing shards is a headache with the logging use-case. Most logs don't have that much structure. A few fields, sure. For this, Elasticsearch is not only overkill, but also not very well suited. This is the reason why placing Kafka in front of Elasticsearch for ingestion is rather popular.
