Ask HN: What do you use as Log management tool?
I see many solution out there, Sumo Logic, Graylog, Loggly, PaperTrail, Logentries, Stackify. Which one would you recommend and why?
- ignorantguy 8y agoI would suggest Scalyr if you are looking for paid product. Their product is amazing. We also use our own hosted version of graylog which is opensource. But with Scalyr you can customize a lot of stuff, set up custom alerts etc.
- lsemel 8y agoWe also use Scalyr, it's great.
- programd 8y agoFor on premesis installs, enterprise production systems seem to be converging on the ELK stack - Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana. However managing this at scale requires quite a bit or resources and know-how. It's frequently overkill for what you need. For modern brand new production systems I always suggest to start with oklog until you outgrow it (if ever). Most of the time you just want to send your logs to some central location and archive them in files. Occasionally you want to tail them or search them. Oklog gets you all that in a distributed fashion and with minimal fuss. https://github.com/oklog/oklog https://github.com/oklog/oklog
- areski 8y agoUsually if I see a project archived on github, I move along and look for something else. I learnt the hard way that there is a high cost in those cases, we would definitely want to use something actively support and we won't mind paying for the right tool.
