Ask HN: General hosted solution for server logs/monitoring/analytics/errors?
I've been trying to find a good hosted general solution for my company's server logs. Either my google-fu is failing me, or this is a surprisingly untapped market, or both.
Some features I'm looking for:
- Easily pipe arbitrary logs into the service
- Analyze common log formats, make them searchable/create analytics out of them
- Bonus points for nginx log analytics
- Traffic/hit rates/error rates visualizations over long periods of time.
- Big bonus points for sentry-like error
Here's some apps I tried:
- Cloudwatch (https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/). I'm on an AWS stack but I really not a fan of it.
- Papertrail (https://papertrailapp.com/). Great for system logs but not much else.
- Currently trying Server Density
(https://www.serverdensity.com/). Liking it a lot, but seems to be very centered around monitoring rather than general-purpose.
- Huge fan of Sentry (https://getsentry.com/welcome/). Will likely be using it regardless.
- Piwik supports log analytics (https://piwik.org/log-analytics/) but the hosted version is very pricy
What I'm basically looking for is a hosted version of papertrail+sentry+SD+piwik. Does this really not exist or am I completely missing something?
- flormmm 10y agoA proper logging solution: ELK - elasticsearch - logstash -kibana A docker image will have you up and running in minutes. If you're looking for open-source, mature "analytics" solution, then checkout Snowplow analytics

Splunk started with a knowledge base of common errors, not sure if they still have that. Personally I'm exploring https://www.hostedgraphite.com/ https://www.hostedgraphite.com/ for the graphs and alerting.
