Feature Request - live streaming logs

[ryn9]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Not a problem - but missing functionally as compared to other Elastic implementations

Describe the solution you'd like Cross referenced here: https://discuss.opendistrocommunity.dev/t/feature-request-live-streaming-logs/4336

Opendisto team -

As many, many folks use ES and Kibana for log aggregation - it would be beneficial to support live streaming of logs in Kibana.

Inspiration for what this could look like could be seen here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/observability/7.10/tail-logs.html https://logz.io/platform/features/live-log-tailing-in-kibana/ https://github.com/sivasamyk/logtrail

Do you think this is something we could see in short order?

Thank you

@ryn9 Couldn't you technically try this yourself by building a new image and installing that plugin to Kibana? With the logz.io that is.

I think one of the issues in general with adding more plugins is that the community would likely be split on the necessity of such a plugin.

(This assumes it works out of the box with Opendistro Kibana implementation).

However, adding a native live tailing like in ES would be pretty cool 👍
