Description

We need to make several configuration templates for Filebeat so that we can collect them separately: infrastructure logs (eks, aws, elb, etc.), application logs, depending on the type of application. As an example, use specific labels on the pods, log_type: "multiline"

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the existing EFK module configuration in the repository, understand how Filebeat is currently deployed, and create separate configuration templates for infrastructure logs and application logs. Use Kubernetes pod labels like 'log type: multiline' to differentiate log types. Test the templates with sample pods.
