Logentries
Logentries lets you collect data from many services at once in a fairly easy to use GUI.
Adding a Log
You can add a log using a few different methods:
- Logs and Log Sets - Log sets allow you to group your logs together (e.g. by host, environment, region, role).
- Agent Based Logging - you can setup agents to automate log collection in your environment
- Syslog Forwarding - Use your operating systems’ log forwarder to send logs from your OS directly to Logentries
You can configure forwarding for Linux based (Rsyslog, Syslog-D, Syslog-NG)
- Docker Logging Container - Collect system-level log data and container-level performance stats
- Application Logging - Use say Python or Ruby to do in-application logging
- Token Based Logging - Recommended method for autoscaling environments
