The current GitLab Logstash dashboard contains just the GitLab application logs and no visualizations. Furthermore access logs seem to be not included/filtered out?
It would be beneficial for traffic related incidents to have a proper Dashboard similar to the Gerrit apache ec2 one.
I'm starting a new dashboard here but I have no idea how that works in logstash: https://logstash.wikimedia.org/app/dashboards#/view/38dc4c50-7cae-11ef-b061-47f1245f2864

I was able to mostly replicate the Gerrit ESC logstash dashboard for GitLab: https://logstash.wikimedia.org/app/dashboards#/view/38dc4c50-7cae-11ef-b061-47f1245f2864. It's not perfect but should be enough for analyzing traffic related issues.
The recent GitLab upgrade (T375710) can be seen quite nice in the new dashboard as well: https://logstash.wikimedia.org/goto/3902ad7941591a6b73fbbe7e120a6fd7 (this link contains the date for the update).
I'll resolve the task, further tweaks can happen after using the dashboard in incidents.
Thank you, nice!
