This integration uses Filebeat in a Docker container to forward logs from Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) to Logz.io.
To use docker-collector-logs, you’ll set environment variables when you run the container. The Docker logs directory and docker.sock are mounted to the container, allowing Filebeat to collect the logs and metadata.
Deploy the Docker collector

Download the logzio/docker-collector-logs image.
